Model: Alfa Romeo 156 MK 1 - Years 1997-2007
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How do you replace the light switches on the Alfa Romeo 156?

To be able to replace the light switches on the Alfa Romeo 156, the battery must first be disconnected; subsequently, you have to loosen the screws located in the rear part of the steering, on the right and on the left, in order to remove the airbag. Once it has been unplugged from its connector, it can be removed. After removing the nut that fixes the steering to the column, it will be possible to remove it; now it will be possible to remove the plastic covers placed around the light switches, by removing the screws located in the lower part of the column. At this point all the screws that fix the light switches can be loosened, removing the old light switches and replacing them with new spare parts.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
