How to remove the Hood Cable Assembly on 2009 Scion xB?

Question

Accepted Answer

The first step to replace the Hood Lock Control Cable Assembly begins by removing the front wheel followed by unfastening the front wheel opening extension pad LH with its two screws. First detach the front side mudguard LH by uninstalling its 2 screws together with grommets. Start by turning the pin-holding clip of the front fender liner LH 90 degrees with a screwdriver then unfasten the 8 clips and all 4 screws while detaching the 3 grommets; note that the grommet will break upon removal so it needs replacement. The next step is to remove the radiator cover through the removal of its five clips. Remove the water hose clamp bracket through the removal of its 2 bolts. Proceed to detach the hood lock assembly by executing a cable disconnect followed by removing the 3 bolts. The first step for removing the hood lock control lever sub-assembly requires disconnecting its cable and extracting the lever. Finish the hood cable assembly removal by working with a screwdriver whose tip is taped and using it to detach the clamps before extracting the cable from the engine compartment.
