Jeep 4589826AA Hood Latch

For models from 2002 to unscrew the grille, and then to turn out screws from the center vertical latch bracket. A circle should be made around the latch and two nuts must be unscrewed and the cable disconnected and the latch should be pulled off. On the 2003 and on models, the grille support has three fasteners, and on the 2007 and earlier models, the grille support will require removal to reveal the latch assembly. Once more, draw a circle at the latch, unscrew the two nuts, cut the cable, and retire the latch. To access the diagonal of the cable, begin with the removal of the battery and the latch, then the Powertrain Control Module. Then, remove the left side scuff plate and kick panel; then use a screwdriver to loosen the hood release handle and then disconnect the cable by pushing down the two black clips on the cable end. Disconnect the cable at the engine compartment, free the clip on the cable and pass the grommet through the firewall and then pull in the cable from the inside of the vehicle. Reinstallation is done in the reverse manner to guaranty that the cable grommet sits in correctly in the firewall.
