BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Windscreen wipers
Operation: Where is the windshield wiper relay located in the BMW 3 Series?

If the windshield wipers of our BMW 3 Series have suddenly stopped working, we can first check the status of the respective relay whose position is indicated in this video. As shown, it is located inside the cabin, precisely behind the passenger glove box. To access it, simply open the glove box and remove the bottom panel. The relay in question is the first one at the top left, looking at the box from the front. If faulty, make sure to replace it with a replacement of equivalent specifications and operate with the vehicle turned off.

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.
