BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Window motor
Operation: Replacement of the window motor

The first step in replacing the window motor of your car is to buy a new, original, good quality one made by the house of your car. By following the instructions in the guide, the replacement procedure will prove to be quite simple, so as not to waste too much time and avoid doing damage. To reach the faulty motor, simply remove the door cover panel and proceed to unscrew the screws covering the buttons, using a screwdriver, and then disconnect all the connectors at the base of the buttons. Once the component to be replaced has been identified, the electric cables must be disassembled, taking care not to damage them. When the crystal is released from the guide it will be supported so that it does not fall and it will be fixed with the help of a screwdriver.

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.
