How to repair and adjust the handbrake of the Fiat Ducato

Model: Fiat Ducato X290 - Years 2014-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

Today we will discover the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and repair the handbrake of the Fiat Ducato, as well as the RAM Promaster, and adjust the lever. So we open the front door on the driver's side and start removing the plastic cover of the handbrake next to the front seat, as shown in the video. At this point, we adjust the handbrake by replacing the cable if it is broken or damaged; we check that the lever travel is optimal and that the brake works correctly, finally reassembling the plastic cover!
