How to remove the ignition knob on a Ford? Let's see carefully in this video how to proceed with the correct disassembly. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the tightening screws placed on the lower left panel of the steering wheel, remove the same from the dashboard. Remove the plastic cover of the left ventilation vent cover, detach it from the dashboard, then unscrew the tightening screws of the light button panel with a screwdriver, remove the piece from the dashboard, disconnect the power supply terminal. Once the piece has been removed, we can assemble a new one or (replace the LEDs / bulbs from the panel) we can reassemble the same. Finally we proceed backwards for the assembly operations.

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.
