Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Headlight bulb
Operation: Replacing the low beam bulb (h7) in the Fiat 500.

To replace the dipped beam bulb, in the Fiat 500, first of all, we must lock the car in position, on a flat surface or on the bridge. This operation must be done whenever a maintenance operation is to be carried out on a car. This precaution is necessary to safeguard the safety and security of the operator. At this point, we open the front hood of the engine compartment, remove the rubber protection of the electrical contacts and, by pressing the tab at the bottom, we pull the bulb holder out of its seat. We remove the bulb, simply, pulling it out (without grabbing the bulb, with bare fingers). We replace it with the new one (pay attention to the position of the metal tab) and reassemble everything, following, backwards, the operations seen previously.

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.
