Part: Light bulb
Operation: How to replace the brake light bulb on a Fiat 500

How to replace the stop light bulb on a Fiat 500. First we need to open the tailgate, in order to highlight the screws that hold the rear light unit in place. They are two screws that we can remove without difficulty, located just under the tailgate wing. Once these two screws have been removed, you will only have to pull the headlight towards you and it will come off. Pay attention to the two side clips, which you will then have to fit when you put it back in its place. Remove the electrical connector using a plastic spatula. Remove the four screws holding the plastic cover on the back of the light unit in place and you will be able to access the bulbs. Remember never to touch them with bare hands. Remove the stop one and replace it and now put everything back by repeating the sequence in reverse.

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.
