Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How do you replace the light switches on the Citroën C3?

In order to replace the light switches on the Citroën C3, it is necessary to unscrew all the screws which fix the plastic covers which are found around the steering column: once these have been detached, it will be possible to unscrew the screws which are found in the rear of the steering wheel so that the center airbag can be removed by unplugging the connector. Then it will also be possible to remove the nut that fixes the steering wheel, removing it in turn; the light switches in its rear part can be removed by unscrewing the fixing screws and disconnecting the appropriate connectors.

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.
