Or, roll down the window, pull the latch, and then run like hell to pull up on the hood before the latch shuts on ya. takes like 10 minutes but you'll get it eventually, lol Quote I hate long signatures.... ...what the fuck is wrong wiht you you fucking fuckity fuck fuck head...

bassrace Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 (edited) I have a 2000 camry. Their could be wiring problems you might want to check that(as in loose connection ect..) if it is the latch itself go get a new one at a junk yard for a whopping 10$ or so.... But just so you know you can get the hood open just get a good stern pull up and it will open just as you pulled the lever in the car.. I was doing some work on my car before(this is how I found out) and had the battery disconneted, shut the hood and didnt realize I couldnt open it back up without electricity soo I thought I would have to fuck something up trying to get it back open. Good thing there's a few mechanics in my family to help me in my dumbass moments.

JEMT8 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Spray the hell out of the latch with pb blaster or good ol wd-40. And make sure the spring on the latch isn't getting stuck . Quote formerly known as Jaylor Swift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Fizzy Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Adjust the rubber bump stops that the hood sits on. That should do it.

Good thing there's a few mechanics in my family to help me in my dumbass moments. your hood release is electric? i have never seen that on any car....only cable. shit my moms mercedes is even cable lmao damn toyotas bein different HA. anyways i would do exactly what these guys are saying.... hose it down with pb blaster....i dont like wd 40 because it is actually like a degreaser in some of its chemical properties.... read the can "removes oil" or something like that. also make sure your hood latch isnt bent....a bent latch WILL cause problems for releasing lol good luck! -jarrid Quote i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it Yea, it looks like someone got the mids about a month ago....shit.
