Bonnet release mechinisam broke. It seems like it is jamed or something as i tried using plyers to pull the cord but does not move.
Is there a way around it? Car is a BA.

Without the leverage of the handle it's a hard task to get done. Get a NEW handle from Ford, as they've changed the design of them, no to stop it happening.

is a common problem with ba's that i've encountered. To make do without a new bonnet release, just use a pair of pliers, and working under the dash, yank the end of the cable with the pliers while holding the release bracket in the other hand. Has worked for me in the past.
