Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Handle
Operation: Fiat 500 Abarth trunk handle removal

In this video tutorial we will see how to remove the trunk handle of a Fiat 500 Abarth, but also on the normal Fiat 500. First we open the boot lid and remove the plastic clips of the carpet panel: then we pry the sides of the panel in so as to remove it and we go to push the rear part of the handle forward, in order to remove it; finally disconnect the electric connector of the lock. At this point it will be shown how to open it to replace it with the new one; for reassembly just apply the reverse procedure!

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.
