Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Tail light
Operation: How to replace the rear headlight of a BMW 3 Series?

To replace the rear light of a BMW 3 Series, open the rear hatch and locate the mounting screws around the perimeter of the light. Use an appropriate screwdriver to carefully unscrew the screws. Once the screws have been removed, gently grab the light and pull it outward to detach it from the body. Pay attention to the electrical connectors on the back of the light. Disconnect them carefully and remove the light completely. Before installing the new light, make sure it matches exactly the model and specifications of your BMW 3 Series. Connect the electrical connectors to the new light and position it in the appropriate slot on the body. Ensure that the alignment pins are correctly positioned and then gently press the light downward to secure it in place. Screw in the mounting screws with the screwdriver, making sure the light is securely attached. Finally, close the rear hatch and turn on the new light to verify proper operation.

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.
