Handbrake adjustment on Fiat Grande Punto

Model: Fiat Punto 199, Punto EVO, Grandepunto , MK 3 - Years 2005-2018
Part: Hand brake

If you no longer feel the handbrake of your Fiat Grande responding properly and you have a good dose of dexterity, in this video you will find all the instructions in a few simple steps that will allow you to carry out the operation in complete autonomy. The first step is to remove the plastic holder of the handbrake, simply unlocking the clips and pulling outwards, as there are no screws to hold it. At the base of the handbrake there is a hexagonal nut that holds a metal plate where the tie rods that block the rear left and right cylinders converge. Precisely on this nut we would intervene by tightening it properly with a hexagonal ratchet wrench n. 10 until the handbrake is properly tightened, stopping and braking the car after a maximum of 4 clicks.

How to deactivate the safe lock on a Volkswagen Golf.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
