if nothing is wrong, then how can you not close the hood?
just check if anything is hitting and the latch. pretty much the only things that could go wrong...

Just a typical accord problem, the hood lock always always dies. yes is a spring n the lock. u can use a screwdrive to push down the little thing that the spring is supposed to pull and let go. look at it closely n the light is on the left of the lock deep. i need to buy one cause is kind of gay to be with a screwdriver everytime my hood needs to be close. once u push the thinging lol just drop the hood it will close so damn easy, like is supposed to damn it but still love accords.
