Hood release cable #836760 09/18/07 05:35 PM

My hood release sticks in the open position. I have to dig at the latch with a screw driver to get the cable to release and the hood to latch closed.
Is it tough to remove from the truck and lube, or should I just replace it?

thanks

Did you check the alignment of the latch real good first. They're not bad to take out and lube, but if you can't get it to work by just lubing it in the truck, I would just replace the latch.
