Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to unlock the hood of a Nissan Micra K12 that was stuck. The only way to access the opening mechanism is to go through the front grille, which we had to drill using a hole saw. From there, we should pull the cable, but in reality, even this system recommended by a mechanic did not work.

The solution is instead to turn the latch located behind the mechanism: we insert our hand into the hole we made in the grille, and find a latch that we press with our finger, and the hood will automatically open. The YouTuber shows us where the latch to press is located: essentially, it involves releasing a spring located right behind the opening mechanism.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
