Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 500 L - Years 2012-2023
Part: Rear bumper
Operation: Removal of the Fiat 500 bumper

Open the boot lid and unscrew the two side screws that secure the rear bumper to the area under the light (torx t30). Raise the rear part of the car with a jack and unscrew the four screws that secure the bumper from underneath. Arrived so far, unscrew the three screws that secure the bumper to the wheel arch and then, to detach it from the fender, you must first detach it from the rest of the frame with a large wedge and unscrew the underlying bolts which, in fact, secure the rear bumper to the fender. Obviously repeat the procedure on the other side of the car and gently remove the bumper.

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.
