Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 500 X - Years 2014-2022
Part: Dashboard
Operation: How to remove the side panel of the dashboard of the Fiat 500X

In some maintenance operations aimed at the side air bushing or the instrument panel, it may be necessary to remove the front part of the dashboard located on the left side of the steering wheel. Fortunately, the whole procedure takes a few seconds even without the help of an expert in the field. Before proceeding with the disassembly, make sure you have completely turned off the car. After that, get yourself an object thin enough to be able to insert it into the present slot. Then apply an upward thrust along the entire perimeter in order to facilitate disassembly. Finally, pull it towards you.

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.
