Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Starter motor
Operation: Where is the starter motor located in the Citroen C3?

In this video we can see where the starter motor is located in the Citroen C3 and how to proceed in case we need to replace it. As shown, it is located on the left side of the engine, just below the battery at about half a height. To access it, we will first have to disassemble the battery itself, its support base and the control unit. Once this is done, we can go under the vehicle, unscrew each fixing bolt of the motor and separate it from the engine. Given the complexity of the operation, it is recommended to carry out it in the presence of a qualified person.

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.
