If the lock of your Fiat Multipla has been damaged due to use, but your key is still efficient, you can try the method of our YouTuber, with a bit of luck and patience. First, you will need to go to a scrapyard in your area and find a lock in good condition from a Fiat Multipla. Then, following the easy instructions in the video, remove the cylinder from the lock and with a lot of patience, "shape" the cylinder, notch by notch, to match your key. Before removing the cylinder, you will have made a notch to put it back in the right place, after which you can put it back in its place and replace the lock, confident that it will work perfectly.

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.
