I recently pulled the hood release on my '89 XJ, and was unpleasanlty surprised when the handle came off in my hand and the hood did not release. I have a replacement cable, but cannot figure out how to get the hood open so that I can make the repair. I tried simply pulling on the cable that was left in my footweel and it seems to pull out of the dash for about 1.5 feet and then becomes stuck. My question is whether there is a tried and true method of getting the hood open without the release cable or whether I need to acquire the assistance of a mechanic. Any advice is appreciated.
