Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Dashboard
Operation: How to replace the Ford Focus dashboard warning light bulbs

Before starting the operation it is necessary to disconnect the battery electric cables. Now we must proceed to disassemble the steering wheel to be able to work directly on the dashboard. To do this, simply slide it upwards and operate the appropriate lever, on the right of the steering wheel, to unlock it and be able to remove it from its position. At this point we proceed to unscrew the three screws that block the dashboard (located along the upper edge) and, after disconnecting the power supply cables, we can slide the frame, with the glass, of the dashboard upwards to remove it. Now we can unscrew the 4 screws that block the actual dashboard and extract it to be able to work on the back. Disconnect the power supply by acting on the clip that blocks the socket. At this point the game is done: from the back we can replace the bulb corresponding to the light that does not turn on.

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.
