Today we will illustrate the steps on how to disassemble and replace the Bmw 1 Series battery, following the instructions below. First we open the rear door of the trunk to access the battery; then we go to unscrew the nuts of the battery terminals (positive and negative pole), in order to disconnect it, as shown in the video. At this point we unscrew the screws of the battery bracket to remove it and replace it with the new one, of the right type and having the same amperage; we just have to reassemble everything, following the video tutorial to the end!

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.
