Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Third brake light
Operation: Remove the third stop in the Ford Focus.

To remove the third stop in the Ford Focus, we start, as we should every time we have to perform a maintenance operation on a car, by placing the car itself, on a bridge or on a plane so that we can work on it in stable and safe way. Once this is done, we open the tailgate of the luggage compartment and we have, in this way, access to the third brake light block. We now use a screwdriver to remove the two clips, positioned on the sides of the light block to be removed. In this way, we can disengage the third stop light block from its seat and, after disconnecting the power supply of the same, we can definitively remove it from its position.

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.
