Hood Lock Control Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Nissan Pathfinder. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: If the hood lock cable is bent or deformed, replace it.
  1. Remove the front grille. Refer to "REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ".
  2. Make sure the secondary latch is properly engaged with the secondary striker with hood's own weight by dropping it from approx. 200 mm (7.87 in) height.
  3. While operating the hood opener, carefully make sure the front end of the hood is raised by approx. 20 mm (0.79 in). Also make sure the hood opener returns to the original position.
