Ford Excursion Hood Cable

The Ford Excursion Hood Cable is an easy part yet very important one that allows the driver to pop the hood open quickly. The Hood Cable operates in such a manner that a slight pull from the in-cab release lever to a junction block and then on to the twin latches up front converts into a good yank on the latch so the panel lifts free. The early Ford Excursion models utilized a primary Hood Cable with short secondary leads to each latch, a configuration that continued through the Excursion range as it achieved smooth operation and easy routing, meaning that the differences over the period have been more due to materials than design overall. The steel core is protected by plastic sheathing, but due to aging, cracking or moisture, it may corrode or stretch. Thus, the hood gets stuck closed and cannot be opened. Regular inspections and replacement ensure dependability from the Ford system since even a slightly frayed Hood Cable can fail without warning. All Ford Excursion owners use a working, responsive Hood Cable for safe and convenient maintenance.

Ford Excursion Hood Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: How to properly remove and install the Hood Cable and Hood Latch for the front hood release on Ford Excursion?
    A:
    To remove the latch the first step is to mark around the latch to be used as a line when reinstalling the latch, the next step is to remove the bolts that hold the latch to the radiator support and the last step is to detach the hood release cable from the back of the latch assembly. Installation is done in reverse and usually the latch is adjusted in a manner that when closed firmly on the cook top it has a slight dent on the bumpers. As for the cable, it becomes possible to pull the cable free from the hook but only after removing the hood latch and then to get at the hood release cable you must unbolt the parking brake pedal assembly in the passenger compartment and disconnect it from the release handle. Wipe a wire on one end of the cable to help pull the new cable back in the vehicle. In the engine compartment, free the cable from its clips, pulling the cable and the grommet into the compartment: then join the wire of the new cable to the handle end of it and make sure that the new cable also has a grommet. Pass the new cable through the firewall from inside the vehicle and then put the grommet in the firewall, then simply do the whole job in reverse of what was explained above.
