hood on my x type won't close
Hello everyone, well I had my 02 x type parked for a couple of months and when I went to start it it had problems it didint hv before. The battery died and the hood won't close. I bought a new battery but now I can't get the hood to shut closed. Does anyone know what part I need to replace? ?

Since you make it sound that the hood didn't close after you changed your battery I am going to go ahead and say:
Make sure you have the right battery!!!
Assuming you didn't make this mistake, you need to make sure the hook on your hood is aligning with the latch on you car. Also compare it with the other side and make sure is not bent or anything, sometimes you can bend it back in place. Try to notice if is one side that won't catch, both sides, etc. Before replacing any parts we have to try and figure what's happening.
Best of luck!!!
