Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Release Cable P/N:912-011
Replace a worn or broken hood release cable and its handle in one step with the Dorman hood release cable, part number 912-048 from Dorman - OE Solutions. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2007 Ford Focus. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for complete application details.
The hood release cable links the release handle to the hood latch. Pulling the handle draws the cable, which lets the latch free the hood. Over time a cable can stretch, fray, kink or break. Signs this part may need replacing include a handle that pulls with little or no resistance, a hood that stays latched after you pull the handle, or a hood that only opens after several pulls. A sticking latch can cause similar symptoms, so check the latch before you replace the cable. If the hood release cable on your 2000-2007 Ford Focus is the part that has failed, this Dorman hood cable with handle replaces it.
