"Remove the radiator grill so you can reach in and work the mechanism by hand. You'll find the slider."


my red pull latch broke, so to open the hood without moving grill/radiator I lay on the ground with my feet at the pass front wheen head near driver wheel reach up inbetween aux fan and grill up above you can feelthat nub of the latch... pull it toward you.

I've been wanting to get mine fixed, but i've got it down to about 5 sec to open the hood

I was leaking oil on the 1,200 mile trip from florida and couldn't raise the hood after the latch broke...had me worried but in the end trusty ole volvo :)
