Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Part: Brake discs
Operation: Removing the brake disc on Ford Focus

Worn disc brake replacement? Let's see the disassembly of the brake disc on Ford Focus. The first thing to do is remove the front wheel. We unscrew the pins of the brake caliper by detaching it from the support. With a screwdriver we detach the brake pads. Remove the caliper support and unscrew the pins on the disc brake with a special key. We detach the disc towards us in order to remove it from the rue hub. We assemble the new brake disc with all the pins attached, we tighten the caliper support to the disc and the pads, then, we assemble the brake caliper, remembering to tighten all the pins well. We bleed the brake caliper. We mount the wheel and test the brake.

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.
