Fiat Punto - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Punto 199, Punto EVO, Grandepunto , MK 3 - Years 2005-2018
Part: Seat
Operation: How do you replace the seat cables on the Fiat Grande Punto?

To be able to replace the cables that allow the Fiat Grande Punto seat to be folded down, first of all you need to loosen the bolts that secure the seat and remove it from inside the passenger compartment, to work more comfortably. Now, you will have to remove the plastic cover that is located on the side of the cushion and that also wraps the knob that allows you to tilt the seat. By doing so, it will be possible to detach the cable from the lower part and subsequently extract it from the upper one, after the special lever near the headrest has been removed. After the replacement, it will be possible to insert new spare parts.

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.
