Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Central tunnel
Operation: How do you disassemble the central tunnel of the Fiat 500?

In order to remove the central tunnel of the Fiat 500, you need to pry the lower part of the cover that wraps around its entire length, so that the internal fixing clips are released. This will allow you to lift the cover: to be able to remove it completely, however, you will need to release the clips that fix the handbrake gaiter, removing it completely. In this way it will be possible to detach the old central tunnel so that a new spare part can be inserted; after removal it will be possible to insert the new one, fixing it appropriately.

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.
