Detailed Product Information

Use this hood release cable to replace a damaged or stretched cable that no longer transfers pull force from the interior release to the hood latch. The cable is intended for the left-side cable-to-latch routing used on 2013-2016 Ford Fusion models. Dorman 912-403 is built to match the original-style function needed for a clean repair on Ford Fusion hood release systems.

This part cross-references Ford OE part number DS7Z16916A for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Broken hood release cable that prevents the hood from opening
• Frayed or stretched cable causing weak release action
• Intermittent hood latch operation from cable wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle year, make, model, and left-side cable-to-latch routing before installation. Inspect the hood latch and release handle for wear during service, since damaged related components can affect cable performance. Confirm the cable path is routed correctly and secured to avoid binding or premature wear.
