Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How do you replace the Fiat 500 gear knob?

In order to replace the gear knob on the Fiat 500, you need to loosen the two screws located on the side of the gear knob. Once the screws have been removed, it will be possible to remove the old knob from the upper part of the gear lever; once the old knob has been removed, it will be possible to position the new one in the final part of the lever, screwing the two screws into the side of the knob. In this way the piece will be fixed and it will be necessary to check that it is possible to engage the gears without problems.

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.
