Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Airbags
Operation: How to replace airbags on Fiat 500

How to remove the fiat 500 airbag? We see the disassembly of the airbag from above the steering wheel. We enter the passenger compartment, locate the holes behind the car's steering wheel and under the plastic protection, then insert a screwdriver and unscrew the airbag tightening screws. Once all the screws of the airbag (driver's side) have been unscrewed, disconnect the power supply terminals and extract the same from above the steering wheel. To reassemble the airbag we just have to connect the power supply terminals, then, press the same on the steering wheel with your hands and tighten the tightening screws. We test the operation of the horn placed on the new airbag.

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.
