You will most likely need to remove the inner door panel. Not the easiest thing to do with the door shut, but not impossible. If you remove the rear seat, it makes it easier.

SOURCE: broken hood release cable. Can't open hood

this is a hard one it depends on where it broke,can you cut the housing to get to cable core and pull with pleirs, if it snapped at latch then you will need to remove the grill or go from the bottom and try to hit the release the same wat the cable did,sometime if you grab the cable near the latch and pull hard it will open, good luck.

SOURCE: I HAVE A 2000 FORD F250 AND BOTH BACK DOORS WILL

So i am going to assume you have a supercab with suicide rear doors by thwe way you say the upper latch! There is a cover over the upper latch. Remove it. You should be able to get a screw driver or something up in the to depress the latchlock. Sounds like the cable inside may be broke to the top latch release. otherwise keep disassembling until you are able to get the door open. You might even need to remove the upper latch from the frame if possible.

F-250 extended cab rear door will not open.

A malfunctioning door can mean that there are problems with the linkages. For starters, remove the door panels to look for possible issues. Remember, the cables go bad often, and the plastic pieces that hold the cables are known to break so be very careful when removing the panel - remove all the screws, slightly pull upwards, and the panel comes right off.
Now thoroughly inspect the cables and latches, see if everything is working in sync, thoroughly lubricate the inside, and if that does not help, change the parts to see if that works.

Fuel door on a 2011 kia sorento has always been a little sticky, but now it wont open at all. Repeatedly pusing the button and it clicks at the fuel tank, but the lid doesnt oopen. just about out of gass...

Question is whether the cable/unlatch device is operating, or if the spring that pushes the fuel door open is out-of-position or broken. Have someone else operate the button while you have a fingernail or non-scratching inplement ready to gently pry the door open. If the door does not open, there may be a problem with the cable/unlatch device. If you can get the door to open by hand when the button is operated, you may have a broken or displaced sping, which will be apparent once the door is open. I fixed this issue on our '92 Sidekick by installing a small spring from an old flashlight, set up so as to push gently on the door near the hinge point, while wrapped around the original support bracket. Best luck!

1998 4x4 ford explore driver side door will not

There are long linkage rods from the inside handle to the latch assembly. There should be an adjustment on these links. Too tight keeps latch from locking, too loose it won't unlatch. Use a screw driver or rod to trip the latch asm so you don't have to keep opening and closing the door. Also if it sticks closed and won't unlatch, the door won't be locked closed on you.
