Interesting. Is it's a spark that's needed, perhaps that can be done a different way? Of course it's likely it's done carefully for a reason, and so it might not be all that smart to entertain the idea, so he just files that thought away for now.
The sound of a latch releasing under the hood is a good distraction anyway, and James lifts it one-handedly; although he's recovered enough strength to be using his left arm again for some things, he's not about to try lifting anything with it that he doesn't need to. Besides, the hood isn't heavy, though it does take a moment to figure out how to work the hood prop at the same time.
But that accomplished, he... Has no idea what he's looking at, but it's fascinating.
"Radio aside, none of this is functioning?" He leans around the hood so he can see Arthur when he asks the question; the answer seems apparent, but he does want to be sure before he starts messing with it. Although he's unaware of the potential risks from electricity, he'd prefer not to lose fingers to any unexpected gears or pistons that might fire off.
