can you get to the cable end? the simplest way i found was with a pair of pliers if just the nipple has come off..

hi

If you mean by the pull lever, the cable still seems to be attached to this, but there is no resistance when pulled.

I'll try to get the cable itself and see if that helps.

without actually going outside and checking, cant you put your hand up under the bumber behind the grill and open it by hand manually.

Have you tried a crow bar?

[Dr Silvia]

hmm
ok first check that the outer sleeve hasnt pulled thru its retaining hole, if its still as should be by the release lever then you're going to have to reach round like umpkin said
