Corsierosier Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 So the latch on the hood of my obs will not lock. The safety lock still works and that keeps it from flying up while driving but definitively not comfortable driving with it sorta bouncing in the wind. It started by sometimes not locking when closing the hood. I’d just have to give it a couple tries. Then it started popping up if there was a lot of wind while I was driving. I’d quickly pull over and get it closed right. Now it will not lock at all. I’ve tried wd40 and adjusting the little rubber nubs. Neither made any difference. There’s video of what it does when I pull hood release lever. Looks like something isn’t right. Now sure what though. Thanks for any advice!

lmdew Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Movie looks like the cable is correct. Not much latch info as the hood loop has to press the hook of the latch down to set the hood latch. Was it in an accident? You can take a screwdriver shaft and press down the latch to make sure it springs over center and locks. If that works, something is out of alignment.
