BMW Serie 1 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 1 F20, F21, MK 2 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Interior lights ceiling light bulb
Operation: Replacement of interior lights in the BMW 1 Series F20

In this video we see how to replace the interior lights of the BMW 1 Series F20 / F21. Specifically, the front and rear courtesy lights, that of the trunk and that of the glovebox will be changed. Let's start with the front light; we extract the ceiling light from the sky with the help of a screwdriver or a pin. Let's now replace the bulb, type T10. Reassemble the two forks and put the ceiling light back in its place. Identical work also for the rear ceiling light, again inserting a new T10. We then finish our work with the glove compartment and trunk bulb; always interlocking but without the fasteners, it is even 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.
