Chevrolet Bolt Ev - Video tutorial

Model: Chevrolet Bolt Ev MK 1 - Years 2017-2024
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to install a charging station in the garage for the Chevrolet Bolt EV.

Let's watch a very interesting video on how to install a charger for your electric vehicle. It's not something that everyone can do because you need to have your own garage and the possibility to install such a device, or a charging station - perhaps more practical for our brick and concrete houses - which would still be a great idea. The device described is the Siemens US2 CV30GRYHW VersiCharge Wired 240 Volts. It is not currently listed on Amazon, which makes us think that it is temporarily unavailable. However, there are similar products that cost just under 400 euros. For the installation, a small project was carried out, being able to easily take power from the nearby electrical panel. Certainly, if you don't have this possibility, it is important to remember that it involves high voltage current, which should not be taken lightly. However, if all the prerequisites are met (proximity, ease of execution, materials, and manual skills), you can give it a try and achieve a good result like the one shown in the video. Otherwise, if you want to have a charging station in your garage, it is advisable to rely on a good professional.

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.
