Detailed Description
Dorman 912-004 is a replacement hood release cable for vehicles that use a cable-operated hood latch release system. It is intended for direct replacement on specific year, make, and model applications, including 1989-1996 Buick Regal, 1989-1996 Pontiac Grand Prix, 1989-1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, and 1990-1994 Chevrolet Lumina. This part number 912-004 is built to replace a damaged or worn cable and restore normal hood opening function without replacing the full latch assembly.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- Broken hood release cable that prevents the hood from opening
- Frayed or stretched cable causing weak release action
- Sticking hood release operation from cable wear
- Loss of hood latch pull due to cable separation
- Replacement needs after cable corrosion or internal damage
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify vehicle fitment before installation. This replacement includes the cable only; it does not include the handle or latch assembly. Route the cable along the original path and confirm smooth movement at the release point and latch end after installation. For best results, inspect the hood latch and release handle components for wear before reassembly.
