Hood popping

The little horn has a small screw in it. 7 or 8 mm. Its right by the right
side latch.

Where would this adjustment screw be located?
The cable seems to move freely enough, but doesn't have much slack.

I loosened the spring loaded post last night, but its too soon to know if
that worked.

I noticed that the sliding disc that engages the post does not intrude into
the host very much.
Do I need to remove the grill to get at this mechanism?
Thanks
Ed

   i would say the cable is too tight (at least on the right / passenger
side). there's a little screw that you can loosen and adjust it
slightly. you might also spray some lubicant on the mechanisms to make
sure they're not sticking.
