Product Description

This hood release cable is made to replace the original cable on select Hyundai Equus and Hyundai Genesis vehicles when the factory cable no longer operates smoothly or has failed. Dorman 912-116 follows the original application for the listed vehicles and is sized at 43.5 inches for proper routing through the body and hood release path. The steel inner cable provides the pulling strength needed for latch release, while the plastic outer material helps protect the cable during normal use.

Installation Notes

Verify routing and attachment points against the original cable before installation. This replacement is supplied without a handle, so reuse the existing handle if applicable. Confirm the vehicle year, model, and section location before ordering, especially for 2016 Hyundai Equus dash section and hood section applications. Part number 912-116 should be matched to the original cable length and routing path for proper fitment.
