Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Air conditioning controls
Operation: Replacement heating knobs on Ford Focus

Do you have a Ford Focus second series and the air conditioning / heating knobs no longer work? No problem, we change them immediately! Replacing the knobs on this car model is extremely simple and requires no special disassembly. In fact, it is enough to equip yourself with a special pliers to make a good grip on the knobs themselves and pull strongly towards you. For this purpose, we particularly recommend the use of snap pliers. This procedure is fine even if the knobs are still working you want to replace them with aesthetically different pieces. To fit the new knobs, you just have to push them into place until they snap into place.

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.
