Open Maserati Hood

Need to open your Maserati hood to check the fluid level of your brake fluid, power steering fluid, engine oil, or coolant? Learn how to open your hood by following the procedures below.

Procedure

1. If the battery is dead, unlock the driver’s door using the metal key. 
2. Pull the hood release under the dashboard on the driver’s side. 
3. Go to the front of the car and slide your hand under the hood. 
4. Press the hood latch lever to the side and lift the hood. 
5. Ensure that the hood stays open on its own.

If the hood doesn’t stay up when you lift it, the gas struts are weak and must be replaced.

If the hood doesn’t pop up when you pull the release under the hood, the cable may have me separated from the handle. Check the cable.

Also, have a friend push down on the hood. Pull the hood release under the hand and keep it pulled. As you keep the hood release pulled, ask your friend to pop up the hood.
