I have a 2001 honda civic and it is having a bit of trouble starting. To add to this issue I cant get the hood open because the plastic to pull on the hood latch cable broke off. The car starts making the loud clicking for a couple of seconds, but will then start slow cranking. The end result is either nothing (the clicking and cranking will stop) or the car will eventually start. I have a video of the problem, but I am having trouble uploading the file.

Use some pliers to pull on the cable. Search for this on eBay as a permanent fix. 391686718596.

Have the battery checked.
