While the hood cable opening handles on most cars are located on the driver's side lower guard, the exact location may vary. In some models, for example, this handle may be located under the steering wheel or on the left calf .
However, the basic flow of operation is similar, but the direction of operation may need to be adjusted.
The main function of the car cover cable opening handle is to facilitate the driver or passengers to open and close the engine cover by pulling the handle when they need to open the engine cover. Specifically, its role includes:
Convenient operation : during the driving process, if you need to check the equipment in the engine cabin or add coolant, you can directly pull the motor cover cable by hand without getting off the car .

keep the vehicle beautiful : when the engine hood is closed, pulling the cable can make the engine hood and the body form a whole, so that the vehicle looks more neat and beautiful .
In addition, the engine hood is opened slightly differently in different models. For example, models such as the Chevrolet Cruze have a manually pulled hood release switch on the left side of the driver's seat that activates the open program with a single pull. The hood can then be fully opened by pulling a cable handle under the steering wheel and lifting it to a certain height with both hands.
