Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Lock
Operation: How to repair the lock on the BMW E90

To repair the car lock, first of all it is necessary to disassemble it and to do this it is necessary to unhook the plastic profiles of the door under the armrest and then unscrew the screws that fix the door panel. Remove the internal rubber protection and disconnect the wiring. Unscrew the four screws that support the lock and exert pressure towards the outside to remove the handle. Once the lock has been removed, proceed to remove the screws that secure the aluminum-colored metal plate to the rest of the lock block. Proceed to disassemble the remaining part, taking care to take a picture first in order to have a precise idea for reassembly. At that point it will be possible to replace the various defective components (wheels, etc.). Finally, proceed backwards to reassemble all the various components.

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.
