• Q: How to Install the Hood Cable on 2009 Dodge Ram 1500?

  A: To secure the hood cable, match the handle with the feature on the instrument panel and press down on the handle; this will make the clips seat properly. Drill a small hole over the hood latch control in the dash and allow the cable to go through. Insert your hand into the hole and press the grommet so that it fits fully. Tunnel the cable inside the fender rail all the way to the outer and front side of the vertical support post, making certain the mounting clips are in place. Route the wire to the front end module and onward to the latch. Drop the cable's end into the latch, place the collar over the hole and drive it to snap in place. The last step is to make sure the mounting clips are seated all the way into the base.
