Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Starter motor
Operation: Where is the starter motor located in the Fiat 500?

In this video we can see where the starter motor is located in the Fiat 500, useful in case we need to replace or repair it. As shown, it is positioned in the lower area of the engine, precisely on the rear of the same on the passenger side. To access it and subsequently disassemble it we will have to go below the engine compartment, obviously taking all the necessary safety measures and first of all disconnecting the battery. Once the power to the motor has been removed, it will be possible to unscrew the relative fixing bolts and separate it from the motor.

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.
