Front hood help

[makler]

I have a 2002 and the switch is not opening my front hood (rear works fine). I've read the previous posts and there are comments about an emergency release cable, but they all refer to 2001 or earlier. Does my 2002 have the same cable under the passenger side bumper (and why dont they tell you about it in the manual)? if so, whats the best way to get to it. If not, what are my options? Thank you!
