Model: Fiat 500 500 L - Years 2012-2023
Part: Glow plugs
Operation: Replacing the glow plugs of the Fiat 500L 1.3 Multijet

In this brief guide, let's see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the glow plugs of the engine of the Fiat 500L, with 1.3 Multijet engine. First of all, we open the bonnet of our car and start removing the engine protection cover; then we go to disconnect the electrical connectors of the glow plugs, using a socket wrench with extension to unscrew and remove them, as shown in the video. At this point we install the new glow plugs, of the right type and having the same pitch, connecting them and reassembling everything!

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.
