Chevrolet Spark - Video tutorial

Model: Chevrolet Spark M400 - Years 2016-2022
Part: Key
Operation: How to deactivate the "On Star" service on a Chevrolet Spark.

In this video we see how to disable the "On Star" system of the Chevrolet Spark: this system is nothing but a security system, which tracks you wherever you are so that it can help you if you are in trouble. However, not everyone may like being followed wherever they go, so let's see how to disable the system. We will need a flathead screwdriver. Let's turn on the car: we will see a green LED light that turns on above the mirror. If we go under the driver's seat, we will see a couple of different cables, and what we need to do is push down the tab, pull it out, then release and pull out the other cable as well. Now let's turn on the car again and see that the LED light is red. For safety, however, let's also remove the other plug that we find under the driver's seat. If we turn on the car now, the light is completely 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.
