start of a bad day for me ...was filling my washer fluid tank this morning before heading to work and when i closed the hood the latch wouldnt close. seems that its stuck open. the hood lever(in the cabin of the car) is also in the open position and it looks like its stuck? im at work right now but if anyone has any ideas on what to look for? i imagine something's caught underneath the cable in the cabin or something else is caught somewhere else? the hood release is working fine so its keeping the hood from flying up when driving though
 


thanks. i only had a can of brake parts cleaner and sprayed the springs and it loosened up. i only sprayed the springs so it didnt go on the paint as someone mentioned brake parts cleaner eats the paint(wish i knew before though)
