IF it is installed, it's behind the left front wheel fender liner, at least that's where mine is.

Have someone press down on your hood as you pull the release cable.

Hood Latch issues

Thanks, I'll tear the thing apart and have a look!
I tried the hold the hood down trick, the release lever is loose as there is no tension on the cable. Something seems to have come loose at the latch end.
