Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Soft top
Operation: How to unlock the convertible roof of the Citroen C3 Pluriel.

In today's video, we will see how to proceed with unlocking the opening roof of the Citroen C3 Pluriel. This operation becomes necessary when the roof gets stuck either in opening or closing; it could often be something as simple as a relay or a fuse. First, we open the trunk and remove the rear cover. After that, we remove the side covers and proceed with the mechanical release of the roof; at the same time, we can disconnect the lower power connector. At this point, we can complete the opening or closing process manually.

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.
