How to repair the rear seat backrest handle of the Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008

In this guide, we will see the instructions that will allow us to repair the rear seat folding handle of the Ford Fiesta. First of all, we open the rear trunk door and start dismantling and removing the rear seat folding handle, leveraging on the sides and disconnecting the cable located underneath; then we repair the handle or replace the cable or its mechanism, as shown in the video. At this point, we reassemble the handle and check its correct operation by lowering and raising the rear backrests.
