FRONT TRUNK CABLE & GUIDE TUBE INSTALLATION

We use the same materials factory did only ours are 40 years + newer so yes they seem more flexible. It works well as long as routes correctly and tabs are holding it down. Check the routing through the headlight bucket area.

Once route is confirmed, check the action of the latch installed in place. Make sure the clamp ant the latch is holding the cable sheath securely. Without latching the hood you should be able to pull on the end of the cable to minimize slack at the latch. Push the latch to the closed position. When the cable is pulled the latch should release without the hood closed easily. You fan use a helper to see exactly what the issue is. This is how I determined I had not routed the cable correctly under the light bucket.

It's a pretty simple system but the little details will compromise the ability for it to work correctly. I was surprised it was this finicky, but yes it makes a difference.
