Hmm, soon after I crashed (one of the many) in the mountains, my hood latch started to act up. I managed to pop open the hood and adjust it and lube it (lethium greese) all without a Flashlight-- so specifics elude me, but i do recall adjusting so it would slide and lock, I used a screwdriver as a mock up. All your eally need to do is allow it to engage so perhaps cleaning it and removing any debri that is on the hinge itself, I believe the FSM has a step by step procedure that clarified it rather well, give that try... I think its in the BF section.
