• Q: How to replace the Hood Cable for the Primary Latch Release on 2010 Buick Lucerne?

  A: In order to replace the hood primary latch cable, one should start by opening the hood, as well as eliminating the Hood Latch. Pull the hood release cable apart from the Hood Latch and the hood release handle. Tie a piece of string on the hood release cable to make installation easy through the passenger cabin, then remove the hood release cable grommet from the dash panel ensuring you mark the routing from the cable before removing it from the vehicle. For installation, the string should be moved to one of the ends of the new hood release cable, both routed in the passenger compartment, completely removing the string. Install the hood release cable grommet into the cowl, connect the hood release cable to the hood release manipulator and tug the string and cable into the engine compartment then take the string back from the cable. Lastly, connect the release cable for the hood to the Hood Latch, reattach the Hood Latch and close the hood.
