Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Release Cable P/N:912-470
When the release handle no longer pops the hood, the Dorman hood release cable 912-043 supplies a new cable and handle that link the cabin lever to the hood latch. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-2004 Ford Mustang, built to take the place of a cable that has worn out or broken.
A hood release cable carries the pull from the handle to the latch. Signs this part may need replacing include a handle that pulls with little or no resistance, a handle that feels stiff or sticks, a hood that will not unlatch, or a cable that is visibly frayed or kinked. The latch itself can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. If a failed cable is the problem, this Dorman replacement takes its place. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full application details.
