1. Hood
A: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
NOTE:
The hood lock has a dual locking design which
consists of a main lock and a safety lock mecha-
nism. When the release knob located at the front
pillar on the driver's side is pulled back, the main
lock is released through the cable attached to the
knob.
The safety lock can be released by pushing the
lever protruding above the front grill while opening
the hood.
1. HOOD
1) Open front hood, and remove washer hose.
2) Remove attaching bolts.
G5M0137
3) Detach front hood from hinges.
4) Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
With buffer protruding about 18 mm (0.71 in)
beyond radiator panel, make sure that:
INo clearance exists between buffer and
inner hood.
IHood main lock is applied when hood is
released at a height of approximately 10 mm
(0.39 in) above the closed position.
NOTE:
Align the center of striker with lock during installa-
tion. Make sure safety lever is properly caught by
striker under the hood's own weight.
G5M0141
2. HOOD LOCK
1) Open front hood and remove front grille.
2) Remove bolts which secure lock assembly to
radiator panel, and remove lock assembly.
B5M0267
3) Disconnect release cable from lock assembly.
4) Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
IRoute hood lock release cable and hold with
clips.
IAfter installing release cable, ensure it operates
smoothly.
IApply grease to sliding surfaces of parts.

3. RELEASE CABLE
1) Remove front grille.
2) Remove release cable from opener lever in
passenger compartment.
3) Remove release cable from lock assembly.

4. HOW TO DETERMINE A
SHORT-CIRCUIT
1) Test lamp method:
Connect a test lamp (rated at approximately 3
watts) in place of the blown fuse and allow current
to flow through the circuit. Disconnect one connec-
tor at a time from the circuit, starting with the one
located farthest from the power supply. If the test
lamp goes out when a connector is disconnected,
the wiring between that connection and the next
connector (farther from the power supply) is
shorted.
G6M0210
2) Ohmmeter method:
Disconnect all affected connectors, and check con-
tinuity between each connector and ground. When
ohmmeter indicates continuity between a particular
connector and ground, that connector is shorted.
G6M0211
3. Working Precautions
A: PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING
WITH THE PARTS MOUNTED ON
THE VEHICLE
1) When working under a vehicle which is jacked-
up, always be sure to use safety stands.
2) The parking brake must always be applied dur-
ing working. Also, in automatic transmission
vehicles, keep the select lever set to the P (Park-
ing) range.
3) Be sure the workshop is properly ventilated
when running the engine. Further, be careful not to
touch the belt or fan while the engine is operating.
4) Be careful not to touch hot metal parts, espe-
cially the radiator and exhaust system immediately
after the engine has been shut off.
B: PRECAUTIONS IN TROUBLE
DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR OF
ELECTRIC PARTS
1) The battery cable must be disconnected from
the battery's (þ) terminal, and the ignition switch
must be set to the OFF position, unless otherwise
required by the diagnostics.
2) Securely fasten the wiring harness with clamps
and slips so that the harness does not interfere
with the body end parts or edges and bolts or
screws.
3) When installing parts, be careful not to catch
them on the wiring harness.
4) When disconnecting a connector, do not pull
the wires, but pull while holding the connector
body.
