Anyway, today I was about to check the engine when I found my bonnet release cable seemed to be jammed. I have attempted having a mate push down on the bonnet while I pulled the lever and pulling the lever with excessive force but am worried I may break something. Was just wondering if anyone here has any ideas on how I would be able to fix this issue?
I was going to detach the cable from the lever and really give it a pull with some pliers but again worried I may break the cable and hence decided to ask the FTO experts first.

Thanks.
