Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 500 X - Years 2014-2022
Part: Key
Operation: How to start the Fiat 500X with the key without battery.

The Fiat 500X has an electronic key detection system which, if you do not have the key itself or if the key battery is flat, prevents the car from starting and thus setting off. So, when we are in one of the conditions indicated above, it is possible to solve the problem with a very simple stratagem. Just take the key with the non-functioning battery and place it (on the side where it has the rounded shape) on the ignition. The ignition will turn on automatically and, by pressing the clutch at the same time, the engine will start, allowing you to move normally.

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.
