Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Handle
Operation: How to remove the external door handle of a Fiat 500

Before starting, we will have to open the door of our Fiat 500. Let's start by removing the door panel, disengaging the relative inserts, unscrewing the fixing screws and finally disengaging the door panel itself. After that, we will need to disconnect the rear door panel plugs, then remove the interior door cover. By doing so, we will have reached the inside of the outside door handle. We then proceed by unscrewing the screws that secure the handle to the door, and then disconnect the relative electrical connector. At this point, we can extract and remove the handle, and the disassembly will be finished.

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.
