    That was a really good patient explanation of possible reasons why the hood won't open. The video images were clear and so were the explanations.

    Hello, thank you for your video. It helped me get ideas on how to fix my latch hood problems with a Toyota Matrix 2014. I have saved about $150 in labor. No material change. With a little assistance from my wife, what a feeling of success when we fixed the hood latch issue. Thank you.

    This video helped me to understand how to fix my hood latch. Latch was not unlocking and cable was good. Knowing about the secondary latch/locked and how it worked allowed me to figure out just what was wrong with my Prius Prime latch lock and how to fix it

    Really good and easy to understand video, for problem on hood closed shut.
    Mine is stuck closed now. I wish you would have done a video on how to get
    that latch open ? Good explanation on how the latch works tho, which is a good
    starting point. I have seen videos where guys stick a long screw driver in the thru
    the front grill. Maybe I can try that, but not to sure where to put it ?? Like your
    presentation style and clear videos.

      Glad it helped. You have to look where the latch is if you are going to use the screwdriver method.

      @@Caliber8Tools I doubt you can see the
      latch with the hood shut closed. I guess
      I'll take a look. Either the latch is frozen
      shut, or rusted shut -- not sure ?

    Hi,
    This doesn't help me.
    I can't open the hood at all to trouble-shoot it.
    Regrets,
