• Q: How to replace the Release Hood Cable on 2006 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: Replacing the Hood Cable requires first lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheelhouse rear filler panel to access the Hood Latch before tripping the latch with a long screwdriver. First separate both right and left hood latches then disconnect the Hood Cable from its attachments. Move the cables until they move freely through the opening in the dash panel and then unscrew the handle and grommet attaching screws on the dash panel. Pull the release cables into the area where the dash panel opening resides. You should pass the cables through the gap in the dash panel before placing the latch handle correctly. Insert the hood release mount screws into position while torquing them to 2 n.m (18 lb in). Begin by passing the cable grommet through holes in both the carpet insulator and dash panel before connecting the cables to their respective latches and finally attaining the hood latching system's operational functionality.
