This genuine Nissan bonnet release cable is a direct-replacement part for the Y61 GU Patrol Series 4 and later models. The cable runs from the interior release handle inside the cabin to the bonnet latch mechanism in the engine bay, allowing you to open the bonnet. It has been manufactured to Nissan's exact specifications for perfect fitment and function.
Over time, the original cable can stretch from repeated use, fray, or snap completely, preventing the bonnet from opening. Common signs of a failing cable include a spongy or loose feel at the release handle or the bonnet failing to pop open when the handle is pulled. Installing a new genuine cable restores the correct tension and reliable operation, ensuring you can access your engine bay when you need to.
This is a straightforward replacement for a confident DIY mechanic. The main challenge is correctly routing the new cable through the firewall from the cabin to the engine bay. Basic hand tools will be required, including sockets and pliers for removing interior trim and accessing the latch mechanism. While replacing the cable, it is a good idea to inspect the condition of the bonnet latch mechanism and the interior release handle, as these may also require replacement.
Please check vehicle fitment to confirm compatibility with your vehicle. Please contact us with your VIN details if you require further assistance to confirm fitment.
