Operation: How to reset the service light on the Alfa Romeo 159

If for some time you have noticed the appearance of a red light on the on-board computer that warns you of the need for maintenance, do not worry because it can be solved and eliminated by acting directly on the controls. First insert the key and turn on the ignition. Repeatedly press the menu button until all the lights appear on the display. Then press and hold the button to answer calls and the "ok" button for five seconds. At this point, navigate within the menu and enter "assist plus" and then "full service". Press again on "ok" and finally exit the menu. Turn off the ignition. The reset is complete, but in case of problems you can repeat the whole operation without problems.

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.
