Citroen C5 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C5 RD, MK 2, X7 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How do you replace the wing mirror motor on the Citroën C5?

In order to replace the external rear-view mirror motor on the Citroën C5, it is necessary to pry it with a screwdriver under the glass, so that it can be detached from inside its housing. Once the glass has been removed, you will have to pry to detach the cap: when this has been removed, it will be possible to disconnect all the cables and unscrew the screws located at the base of the mirror, in order to remove the motor . Then it will be possible to insert the new motor, re-installing all the previously removed mirror components.

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.
