Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Handle
Operation: How do you replace the external handle of the Fiat 500?

The replacement of the external handle of the Fiat 500 is carried out by first removing the internal panel of the door, unscrewing the screws near the internal handle and the window control panel. In this way, the panel can be detached by accessing from the bottom: after the panel has been removed, the internal cover can be removed in order to unscrew the screws that secure the handle from the inside. By also unscrewing the bolt on the side of the door, the outside handle can be detached from the door and replaced with a new spare part.

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.
