The cable links the release handle inside the vehicle to the hood latch and carries the handle's pull so the latch can release. A Dorman hood cable may need replacing if the handle pulls with little or no resistance, if the hood won't pop when the handle is pulled, or if the cable is visibly frayed or kinked. A faulty latch can cause similar trouble, so check the latch before replacing the cable. If the cable is the cause, this part replaces it.
