SOURCE: Hood release broke inside car. How do you release hood?
see if you can grab the broken cable end with a pair of locking pliars (vise grips) and pull
SOURCE: The hood release lever does not release the hood.
Do you have a new cable?? If not most likely there is a need for it it may be stretched out. You can grab the end of the cable that goes to the release (in the interior) with a pliers and pull it this will finish the cable and a new one will most likely be needed
SOURCE: How do I open the hood if the release isn't
Pull the release while helper presses down then lifts on hood. If it opens , lubricate the latch assembly before you close it again.
SOURCE: hood release wont latch
This maybe a problem of the hood being misaligned. in order to remedy this you will have to adjust the 4 bolts on the hinges holding the hood in place and the latch little by little. But first try a penetrating oil on the latch assembly and look for anything out of place.
