Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Rear light bulb
Operation: How to replace the rear light bulb on a Fiat 500

Before starting, we will have to open the tailgate of our Fiat 500. Let's start by unscrewing and removing the screws that secure the rear light to the frame of the car. Subsequently, we will have to extract the light from its housing, and then disconnect the relative electrical connector. By doing so, we will have reached the lamp holder. At this point we will have to unclip the clips that secure the bulb holder to the rear light. When we have released the clips, we will have reached the burned out bulb, which we can disengage and remove, and we will have successfully completed the disassembly. To fit the new bulb, we will have to follow these instructions in reverse, and we will have completed the replacement.

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.
