How do you adjust the handbrake of the Ford Fiesta MK6? You can see it in this video: the first thing to do is to lift the plastic frame that surrounds the handbrake lever and is part of the central console between the two front seats. 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.
