BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Window motor
Operation: Removing the power window motor (part 4).

Using a small crowbar, disengage the clips that secure the gasket in the glass passage slot and remove it. Remove the crystal from its housing by sliding it into the outlet slot and disengaging it from its housing in the motor. At this point we remove the window lifter motor complete with rails for the sliding of the window itself. To do this it is necessary to disengage the various bolts that we have already unscrewed and that hold the motor kit in place. The maintenance operation that is performed in the images is carried out on a BMW 3 series.

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.
