  Q: How to Install the Hood Cable for Latch Release on Chrysler Sebring?

  A:

  First, run the hood cable under the lower dash panel and along the vehicle's inner frame rail. Then, put the rubber grommet on the lower dash and hook the hood cable in the push-in fastener. Fasten the screws holding the hood cable handle to the inner cowl panel and make sure they're tightened to 1.8 Nm (16 in. lbs.). The next step is to fit the left front cowl trim panel and set the hood cable into the clips along the frame rail. After that, install the Hood Latch.

  Q: How to Maintain and Fix the Hood Cable on Chrysler Sebring?

  A:

  Service and repair of the hood cable involves first removing the Hood Latch and the left front cowl trim panel. After that, remove the screws holding the hood release handle to the inner cowl panel and take out the clips connecting the hood cable to the left inner frame rail. Withdraw the rubber grommet at the lower dash and separate the fastener joining the hood cable. Once they are out, you can take off the cable. Pull the hood cable back through the hole in the lower dash panel into the inner frame rail, with the rubber grommet secured against the dash. Secure the cable using the push-in fastener and then mount the hood release handle screws to the inner cowl panel, tightening them to 1.8 N.m (16 in.lbs.) Put on the left front cowl trim, insert the release cable into the clips along the inner frame rail and set the hood latch in place.
