Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Steering wheel
Operation: Removal of the Ford Focus MK2 steering wheel and airbag

Today we will see the instructions to be able to remove the steering wheel and the airbag on a Ford Focus second series. First of all, we open the bonnet and disconnect the two battery terminals in advance; then we go inside the car and remove the plastic cover that we find on the steering cap, then unscrewing the screws that we find on the back. At this point we can extract the airbag and disconnect its electrical connector; we just have to unscrew the central bolt of the steering wheel to remove it too using a socket wrench with extension!

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.
