Before you can start, open the rear hatch of the boot on your Ford Focus. Begin by unscrewing and removing the screws that secure the rear light to the car. This will free the light, allowing you to extract it from its housing and access the back of the reversing bulb.

Next, disconnect the relevant connector. At this point, rotate the bulb holder anti-clockwise to reach the blown bulb, which you will need to extract.

Once you have completed this procedure, you will have successfully finished the disassembly.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
