Hood not popping up...

I've got a 2003 Coupe and the hood is no longer popping up...Is there any other way to open the damn hood to fix it?

Check the cable. Pop off all the underdash trim and see if you can pull the cable, not the latch with your hand.

^ If that doesn't work, grab the front of the hood with both hands, shimmy left and right while somebody is inside pulling on the release.

My 300ZX was doing that too, I had to have someone pull the lever while I pushed down on the hood repeatedly. Annoying.

^ that's why we all fantasize about getting and RSX, but we can't afford it. You have to make trade offs at some point int time

No worries guys I fixed it...I had to jack up the car and unscrew the latch from underneath. It was seized and just needed some grease. If anyone encounters this problem I can help you through it...
