Citroen C5 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C5 RD, MK 2, X7 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Key
Operation: Replace the remote control battery of the Citroen C5.

To replace the battery of the key / remote control of the Citroen C5, we first of all use a small screwdriver to open the plastic shell in the two halves of which it is made. To do this, we rotate the metal key, proper, around its pin, in order to extract it from its seat. Now, insert the screwdriver into the slot, which divides the two halves of the shell, and pry them up until they separate. Once this is done, we locate the battery compartment and extract the old one to replace it with the new battery. We reassemble all the components and close the key. So, that's it!

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.
