Operation: Instructions for removing the external rearview mirror caps

If the covers of the exterior mirrors are damaged, or the paint is cracked or marked by small dents, it will be necessary to have them repainted: it is certainly advisable to remove them at this point; the operation is extremely simple since the caps are fixed to the interlocking mirror, it is therefore sufficient to pry along the edges to be able to release them; in this regard it is advisable to use a plastic spatula or to cover the tip of a flat screwdriver with insulating tape in order to avoid the formation of dents.

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.
