Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Door panel
Operation: Removing the door panel of a Fiat 500

Removal of the door panel of a Fiat 500 (old model). Using a screwdriver, unscrew the tightening screws placed in the handle, remove the window lifter crank and the door opening lever (we unhook the clamping fork as in the video) with the help of two screwdrivers, unscrew the screws left on the panel of the door and detach the panel from the door of the 500 (remove the panel downwards where there is no metal protection). We carry out the desired maintenance inside the door or replace it. At the end of the maintenance we reassemble the panel with all the attached pieces.

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.
