Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Release Cable P/N:912-178
When a worn-out or snapped cable leaves the hood stuck shut, the Dorman hood release cable, part number 912-083, is a secondary hood release cable with handle built to directly replace the failed original. It fits many Ford Super Duty trucks, among them the 2007-2010 Ford F-250 Super Duty, 2007-2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty and 2007-2010 Ford F-450 Super Duty; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
A hood release cable carries the pull from the release handle to the hood latch so the latch can let go of the hood. If a stretched, frayed or broken cable is the reason your hood won't open, this assembly replaces it.
