"The drivers side released but the passenger side won't give" I believe that the inside hood release is the drivers side and the front hood release/tab is on the passenger side."

On mine once you pull the inside hood release of you go outside and pull up on the hood the Tab/release extends making it easier to grab.

In the past some have had the mechanism that operates when you pull the tab malfunction.

You can look it up on this forum where you buy parts. I wouldn't count on a new motor matching your regulator because any 123 regulator ccould have been swapped it.


@Turbo, try pushing down on the hood above the latch that won't release. You may need a helper to pull from inside. You need to releive the pressure so that the latch can retract.
