its probly the cable not sliding back, it happens on mine every time. I used to blow headlights out trying to get it closed.

look for where the cable attaches to the latch mechanism, there will probly be a little lever and a spring, just reach a finger or screwdriver in and push the lever back that has the spring and the cable attached to it and then the hood will close perfectly.
