• Q: How to replace the Hood Cable for the Primary Latch Release on 2011 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: First, raise the vehicle and then remove the front wheelhouse rear filler panel to reach the Hood Latch. After that trip the latch with a long screwdriver before moving on. Start the repair by taking off right and left hood latches followed by removing the Hood Cable from each latch. Reposition the cables until they move without resistance through the dash panel opening and remove all screws from the hood release handle and the grommet attached to the dash panel. Pass through the hood cables until their length lies beyond the dashboard panel opening. To install the cables start by guiding them through the dash panel opening while placing the latch handle correctly before attaching and tightening the hood release handle screws to 2 nm (18 lb in). To complete hood installation install the grommet defender through dashboard openings before connecting cables to latches and inserting them into their mounts. Test the latches function as a concluding step.
