The housing that the hood release cable runs to that releases the hood latches on my 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport has completely frozen. Would a junk yard be the easiest place to find a replacement or can someone recommend a website that sells new ones?

Thanks in advance.

 

I would try a little pb blaster or kroil and let it set a while. (if you havent already) let it set a day or so they take pliers or something and see if you can get it loosened up. If not I don't see why a junkyard part won't work. just make sure that one isnt froze up also.

 

My hood release is INCREDIBLY HARD TO PULL. It gives, but barely. I've soaked mine w/ everything and its still a bear.

 

I soaked my with PB Blaster Deep Creep lubricant..like sprayed it a lot, but if you want a new one: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php
