Chevrolet Matiz - Video tutorial

Model: Chevrolet Matiz MK 1 - Years 1998-2010
Part: Steering wheel
Operation: Steering disassembly of the Chevrolet Matiz

We want to remove the steering wheel of the Matiz? Let's see the disassembly of the parts. We enter the vehicle, remove the inspection plugs in the rear part of the steering wheel (if present), then unhook and unscrew the airbag cover (rear part) with a screwdriver. Once the airbag (driver's side) has been released, disconnect the power supply terminals and extract it from the steering wheel. We unscrew the nut that tightens the steering wheel and remove it. After installing the new steering wheel, we press the airbag with our hands until the locks are attached to the steering wheel. We test the functioning of the steering wheel and the right assembly.

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.
