Part: Parking brake

How do you adjust the handbrake of the Ford Fiesta MK6?

It lifts without too much difficulty, levering on the sides of the frame itself. The adjustment screw is located on the left side of the handbrake lever. Using a key, we can adjust it by tightening or loosening it according to our needs. Normally, a handbrake is considered properly adjusted if it has three, maximum four clicks to be fully pulled.
