BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Part: Brake pads
Operation: Brake warning light reset on BMW 3 Series

Resetting the brake warning light on BMW 1 Series and 3 Series, whether it concerns brake fluid or brake pads, is extremely simple. In fact, you just have to turn on the car and press the appropriate button on the steering wheel, on your left, until the time appears on the small screen. At this point, keep the small button under the speedometer pressed until the reset appears. Release the button and hold it down again, so that the screen asks you to "reset?". Release and press for the last time and that's it. Nothing easier!

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.
