Operation: How do you replace the Alfa 159 steering box?

This video shows the procedure to follow to remove and replace the steering box.

Here's how to proceed: First, you need to unscrew the fixing pins of the arms from the front wheels. Next, it will be necessary to unscrew the pins securing the box in question with a hexagonal wrench fitted with an extension. Once this is done, it will be necessary to remove it from its seat, using a lever if necessary and finally extract it, pulling it out of the car.

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.
