Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to reset the service warning light on the BMW 1 series?

To reset the service light (or oil change light) on the BMW 1 Series we must first turn on the instrument panel and click on the "start" button. Then, as the video tells us, we have to hold down the button on the left of the dashboard until a green instead of red oil light appears on the display. Press the above key once more to confirm the reset until the message "reset done" appears. Once this is done, the ignition can be turned off because the light has been reset. The whole procedure takes only a few minutes and is within anyone's reach.

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.
