Operation: How to replace the gear knob of the Fiat 500

A simple and quick process that will allow you to save time and money simply by following to the letter what I will illustrate in this short guide. With a slotted screwdriver, remove the upper part of the knob by levering the cavity that joins the upper part with the lower one. Now you will have to unscrew the bolt located in the center of the upper part of the knob in this way you will remove the knob and consequently you can also unhook the cap, you just have to make the necessary replacements and follow the steps backwards for reassembly.

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.
