Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 500 L - Years 2012-2023
Part: Rear light bulb
Operation: How to replace a rear light bulb on a Fiat 500L

In this video tutorial we are shown how to remove the rear light of a Fiat 500L in order to replace the bulb. First you need to open the trunk of the car and with a Phillips screwdriver unscrew the two screws next to the headlight. After removing the screws, proceed to remove the casing by levering it gently in order to release it also from the fixing hooks placed at the edges of the casing. At this point we have direct access to the lighthouse and then we are going to unscrew the screws that keep it attached, respectively placed on the top and rear of the same. We can now extract the headlight by pressing the tabs on the sides; we recover the lamp holder and replace the bulb. We reassemble the headlight and the casing by re-tightening the previously removed fixing nuts.

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.
