Dorman 912-431 Hood Release Cable for Honda Accord

The Dorman 912-431 hood release cable is a direct replacement for a worn, stretched, or broken hood release cable on select Honda Accord models. Built with a steel cable and plastic outer material, it restores the connection between the interior release handle and the hood latch for reliable hood opening.

Key Features

  • Direct replacement hood release cable for select Honda Accord applications
  • Steel cable construction for dependable pull strength
  • Plastic outer material helps protect the cable during routing
  • 2133 length for the specified vehicle application
  • Replacement for OE part number 74130TA5A01
  • Part number 912-431 for catalog and fitment reference

Detailed Description

Designed for 2008-2012 Honda Accord models, this hood release cable addresses a common failure point when the original cable frays, binds, or separates. The Dorman 912-431 is made to directly replace the cable only, so it is the correct choice when the handle or latch assembly remains serviceable. This part cross-references 74130TA5A01 for the same application. Use 912-431 when you need a hood release cable for a 2008-2012 Honda Accord and want an OE-style replacement that follows the original routing and function.

What It Helps Fix

  • Broken hood release cable that no longer opens the hood
  • Frayed or stretched cable causing weak pull action
  • Binding or sticking hood release operation
  • Loss of connection between the interior release handle and hood latch
  • Intermittent hood opening caused by cable wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2008-2012 Honda Accord, N/A. Verify that the handle and latch assembly are still usable before replacement, since this listing includes the cable only and does not include the handle or latch assembly. Route the new cable along the original path to avoid sharp bends, pinch points, or interference that can affect hood release operation. Confirm OE part number 74130TA5A01 and part number 912-431 before installation.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures replacement components intended to match the original function of the failed part for the specified vehicle application. The 912-431 hood release cable is built for direct replacement use on the listed Honda Accord model years.
