Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Wheel
Operation: How to replace the spare wheel on a Ford Focus

Let's see how to replace the wheel of a Ford Focus. We open the luggage compartment and take the wheel removal kit which includes: jack, jack lever, screwdriver, bolt wrench (if present), telescopic wrench, spare wheel. We position the jack under the frame of the car (under the stiffer part of the frame), lift the car a little and loosen the wheel pins. We lift the car with the jack lever, unscrew the pins and pull the wheel away from the hub. We mount the wheel on the hub with the respective pins and bring the car to the ground. We place the assembly kit with all its parts in the luggage compartment after replacement.

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.
