Product Details

Dorman 912-483 is a body control cable made for vehicles that need a replacement hood release cable after the original cable stretches, frays, or breaks. It follows the original-style end design and cable length for the 2012-2019 Toyota Prius C, helping restore normal hood latch operation without changing the vehicle’s factory release setup. This part cross-references Toyota 5363052160 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Solve

• Broken hood release cable that prevents the hood from opening
• Frayed or stretched cable causing poor latch engagement
• Stiff or inconsistent hood release lever operation
• Loss of mechanical connection between the interior handle and hood latch

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment by year and model before installation. Route the cable to match the original path and confirm both end connections seat properly at the release lever and latch points. Because the latch and handle are not included, reuse the existing components if they are in serviceable condition.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures replacement parts to match original equipment-style fit and function for specific vehicle applications. Part number 912-483 is built as a direct replacement for the listed Toyota Prius C fitment.
