Fiat Freemont - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Freemont MK 1 - Years 2011-2016
Part: Car stereo
Operation: U-connect malfunction on Fiat Freemont

The problem of the malfunctioning of the u-connect screen on the Fiat Freemont was given by the screen itself which is not capacitive (ie infinity, like that of modern cell phones), but resistive. That is to say, it needs a little firmer touch. (to understand what the TomTom navigator screen was like) Even a small piece of plastic inside touches it, and the screen goes haywire. If even a small intervention has been carried out - which had no relation to the screen - in which the console has been badly reassembled, then the resistive screen will no longer work.

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.
