Before you do anything, check the hood release cable at the lever where the nut holds it tight. When my cable broke, it really didn't break, the nut came loose on the lever and the cable was just sliding in the hole in the bolt. Maybe you will be a lucky one and have the same problem. To fix, make sure the lever is in the rest position, pull on the end of the cable to take up the slack and tighten the nut. I hope this will do the trick for you.
