Operation: Removing the starter motor on Ford Fiesta MK6 1.4 petrol

In today's video we will see how to disassemble and replace the starter motor on a sixth series Ford Fiesta, following these simple steps. First we open the bonnet of our car and we go to disconnect the battery; then we remove the intake sleeve and lift the car from the front left side. At this point we are going to identify the starter motor and from under the car we unscrew the fixing bolts with a 10 mm and 13 mm wrench, as shown in the video; we just have to disconnect its electrical connector to remove it and replace it with the new one!

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.
