Operation: How to reset the brake service light on the BMW 3 Series?

Resetting the brake service on the BMW 3 Series, as we can see in this tutorial, is an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, we must have completed the required scheduled maintenance work. We begin by going inside the car, then turning on the instrument panel and, while holding down the left button on the dashboard, we access the maintenance menu. We then scroll through the various available services, position ourselves on the one related to the brake pads and perform the reset by holding down the same button. Finally, we restart the vehicle.

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.
