Best Answer

There is a rachet right below the hood that you can reach from radiator grill.

Take a long thin screw driver, reach it and turn that rachet.

You will hear the "click" sound and the hood will pop open.

There is a black plastic cover that snaps in place which is covering the latch assembly. You have to reach in through the front grill and pop the plastic cover off and let it fall to the bottom of the radiator since you can't get it out through the grill. Looking in through the grill at the bottom of the latch you will see a long slot. That is where you have to put the screwdriver to pull the unlocking lever to your left to let the hood release.

How do you open a bonnet on a Fiat Palio Go 2006 when the latch is broken?

The latch is broken, not the cable. You can still get to the cable where it is attached to the latch in the foot-well of the car. Grab the cable with a small vice-grip (or similar) and pull. Note that it is very unlikely the cable will break -the latch typically breaks before the cable since the latch is made from plastic and the cable from steel wire.

How do you open the hood on a 94 geo with a broken hood latch cable?

If it is just the inside handle broken off you can pull the cable with a pair of pliers. If it is in the middle, you should be able to reach up from underneath and cut the cable and then pull the inside cable. If the latch end has pulled off, you may be able to trip the latch from underneath, or take the grill out and unbolt the latch.
