The ABS control unit is a tool that calculates and requests the implementation of the braking force, so that the driver does not have to worry about what to do to avoid locking the wheels during an emergency braking. A few moves and a little attention are enough to replace the electronic control unit of the ABS system. It is necessary to carry out a diagnosis before disassembling the control unit, check that there is sufficient space to easily remove the control unit and detach the control unit.

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.
