Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Starter motor
Operation: How to remove the starter motor of a Citroen C3

Before starting, I strongly recommend that you disconnect the battery so that you can work safely. We therefore proceed with the disassembly of the air filter, the relative box and the relative sleeves. After that we will have to disconnect the pins connected to the starter motor. At this point there is nothing left to do but unscrew and remove the bolts that secure the motor. Once the bolts have been removed, we will be free to slide the motor out of its seat and remove it. By doing so we will have successfully completed the disassembly, and we will be able to mount the new starter motor or have this one we disassembled overhauled.

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.
