How to remove and install the Hood Cable and Hood Latch on the Kia Sportage?

Unfasten all the radiator cover holder bolts and pull off the cover. You need to remove cover fasteners, bolts from the latch cover, and then carefully remove the cover. First, unbolt the hood latch bolts. Then take the latch out, and unplug the release cable from the latch by removing its grommet and cable end plug from where they belong. Pull the cable end off the latch. Take out all hood release handle mounting screws and the hood release cable will detach from the handle. Remove the handle, and undo the connection between the hood release handle and the cable. Start in the engine space. Follow how the release cable runs, loosen and remove all bracket clips along the way. Pass the cable through the barrier between the engine and the passenger area. Installing the cable is the same process in reverse: you need to make sure the passage that the hood release cable goes through the firewall is firmly planted.

Kia Sportage Hood Latch

Kia Sportage Hood Latch is the key lock that makes the front lid tight and will protect the engine components and maintain a clear view of the road. It firmly attaches the panel to ensure that the windy highways speeds or a front end collision will not cause the hood to fly high and break the windshield, it also keeps thieves out since there is no easy access to some valuable upgrades that may be stored under the sheet metal. The Hood Latch system on the Sportage is a simple yet efficient combination of a three-step process using an interior release handle, a flexible cable, and exterior Hood Latch catch, and which operates in that order whenever you pop or close the hood. The initial models of Sportage applied a simple steel catch, whereas subsequent Kia years came with a Hood Latch constructed of stainless steel shutter that is closing the keyway, which prevented dirt and moisture entering to combat corrosion and prolong the life of the vehicle. A majority of Kia factory units have similar keys meaning that one ignition key still opens the lock hence providing convenience in everyday life. No matter how old it is, any Kia Sportage Hood Latch is supposed to be a balance of safety, security and ease of service, allowing the owner to get to the engine in a flash, but still drive knowing that the panel will remain locked down.
