Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Headlight bulb
Operation: Headlight bulb replacement

In this video the headlight bulb (passenger side) of a Ford Focus is removed and replaced. For the driver side there would not be many problems, but on the passenger side the presence of the battery, its cradle and the air filter create some inconvenience for this operation. First remove the battery cover. Remove the two screws securing the air tube and push it to the side. Once the air tube is removed, you will have easier access to the bolt that secures the strap that holds the battery in place. Remove the battery and unscrew the three bolts you will access (two on the bottom and one on the left side). There are 5 or 6 rubber clips inserted into the holes on the left side of the compartment. Remove them so that the battery cradle can also be removed. The rubber cap must then be removed. The next step is a bit complicated: you will have to remember the correct position in which to extract the small support of the bulb. Remove the old bulb and carefully mount the new one. Now proceed to carry out all the reassembly operations in the reverse order to that carried out previously.

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.
