Part: Lock
Operation: Removal of central locking unit BMW Serie 3 E90

Let's see how to disassemble the central locking of a BMW 3 Series E90, following these simple instructions. First we open the front door and we go to remove the door panel, going to remove the plastic and unscrewing the fixing screws of the panel. Once removed, disconnect the electrical connectors on the back and remove the panel covering, in order to access the lock module; at this point we extract the handle by unscrewing the side screw of the door and we also unscrew the screw of our module, extracting it from inside the door. We just have to disconnect the electrical connector and replace it!

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.
