Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Two small secret compartments in the Fiat 500.

We never stop learning about our cars, even the most well-known and common ones. Every now and then, we come across a video that shows us some details that may have remained unknown to most people, such as these two hidden compartments in the Fiat 500 version 312, the base model. The first one is located in the central console and opens from the passenger side: there is a small "handle" where you can fit no more than a finger, and it opens a small horizontal drawer. But the biggest surprise comes from the passenger seat, which, when pulled forward and then lifted, reveals a compartment - not too small - where you can store valuables and documents.

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.
