Part: Windscreen wipers
Operation: How to replace the windshield wiper in a Citroen C3

In this video tutorial we can see how to replace the windscreen wiper in a Citroen C3 by following a few simple steps: the first thing to do is to buy a new wiper from an authorized dealer; next step we have to board the car, turn off the car and pull the handbrake. We lift the wiper arm and then grasp between two fingers the two plastic tabs, located on each side of the arm; lift the lock cover and slide the brush down to remove it. Take the new brush and install the adapter that is used to mount it. To mount the new brush, we have to slide it along the arm and then fit it. Gently rest your arm against the windshield. Raise the wiper arm and then rotate the blade by 45°, push the blade with your thumbs to release it; take the new brush, to insert the new brush proceed backwards.

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.
