How to service the hood latch on Ford F-150 Heritage?

A service of the hood latch begins by taking out the radiator grille. Start with the hood latch removal process by first removing its bolts before disconnecting its cable from the latch. Place the new latch correctly before fingertightening its bolts. Disengage the hood latch cable after installation before using the hood closure to adjust the latch positioning properly.
