Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Key
Operation: How to replace a dead battery in the remote control key of a Ford Focus

How to replace a dead battery in the remote control key of a Ford Focus? Let's see how to proceed in this video. We take our remote control and remove the key shell from the metal key. Once extracted, we go with the help of a screwdriver to pry between the two parts of the key cover. We pry until the two covers separate; take out the empty battery with a screwdriver and take a new one of the same size and voltage. We reassemble the two parts of the cover with the buttons by pressing on the remote control key until you hear the lock click. Finally we insert the shell with the metal key of the remote control. We check the exact operation of the remote control.

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.
