Toyota 4Runner Hood Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How do you remove and install a latch and cable for the hood release on 2003 through 2009 Toyota 4Runner?
A: To replace the latch, first remove the latch cover and scribe a line around it for alignment, then take out the retaining bolts securing the hood latch to the radiator support and remove the latch. Disconnect the hood cable from the latch. For installation, reverse the removal steps, ensuring the latch is adjusted so the hood engages securely when closed and the bumpers are slightly compressed. In the passenger compartment, lift the hood release handle lever upward, pull down on the cable housing end to disengage it from the handle, and if necessary, replace the handle by pulling outward on the retaining tab and pushing downward. Attach a piece of thin wire or string to the end of the cable, then in the engine compartment, disconnect the hood cable from the latch and unclip all retaining clips on the radiator support and inner fenderwell. Pull the cable forward until the wire or string is visible, then remove it from the old cable and fasten it to the new one. With the new cable attached, pull the wire or string back through the firewall until the new cable reaches the inside handle. Install the new cable into the hood release lever, ensuring the housing fits snugly into the notch in the handle bracket, and pull on the cable until the stop seats in the grommet on the firewall. Complete the installation by reversing the removal steps.
