How to carry out maintenance on our Ford Focus? This video explains how to replace the battery: open the car door and pull up the engine compartment opening lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and lift up the front hood, releasing the lock lever. Once the engine compartment is open, we will find the battery at the top left; disassemble the locking pins of the battery terminals (with a special key), then, remove it from the engine compartment and replace it with a new one (same voltage). We close the bonnet at the end of the maintenance.

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.
