Re: Stuck Hood Latch 200 1975

After losing three batteries in tree weeks in New York City, I figured out that all the Volvos in the neighborhood had also been hit.

The thief knew his way around this style of latch. He would slid a hook in between the slats of the grille--grab the cable and jerk it until the hood latch pops. Apparently moving the inside or the outside of the cable seems to activate the latch. Try It!
