unclip it from the handle, pull more through, re-attach
you'll soon find out if you need a new cable also!

Mine was stiff because there was paint on the pin. It's fairly easy to strip it down and give it a clean and a grease. If that doesn't cure it then a replacement cable should be easy to source from a scrappy.

You can get the cables online for under £10, Think I got mine off ebay. Cured my stiff bonnet.
