Miguel, 1993 Buick century hood cable broke. With a flashlight, you will have to lay under car and reach up where cable runs into latch and pull the latch mechanism/lever to unlatch hood. If not comfortable doing this call a locksmith and they will have it open in seconds. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

The hood on my 1993 bruick wont open

most likely a stretched cable or frozen latch assembly. The handle for your hood release has a cable behind it. Pull the cable off of the handle and use pliers to pull on it. If the hood opens, you need a new cable. If it doesnt, u need a new latch.

1993 Buick century Battery dies after sitting for a day or two. Replaced Battery, Alternator, and positive battery cable like a fool. Same problem. Disconnected positive terminal and connected voltmeter...

The short is probably in the alternator. Remove the alternator and have it tested at the parts store or test it yourself. Blown diode will allow a direct discharge of the battery.

I have a 94 buick century, the hood relase is not broken but it does release the hood. is there a way to get the hood opened.

have someone pull the release while you push down/lift up on the hood. If you get it open , put a bit of grease on the latch mechanism , and check the allignment of the pin that is mounted on the hood.

1993 buick century. motor noise stsrted coming out of speakers even with volume turned down.orig equipment

spark plugs been changed ? cheap plugs can cause this. spark plug wires ok? broken spark plug wire can cause this too or one just arcing to ground pass a loose boot raise hood after dark and run motor watch over all wires to see anything noticeable. Dont touch anything while running or things could go bad for you fast... some electric fan motor have a filter bolted to them this could be? does it vary with the engine? or stay one level? if all else fails it might be easyer to pick up a filter and install it in the power cable to your radio?
