Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Windscreen wipers
Operation: Replacement wipers on Ford Focus

Raise the windscreen wiper (arm and blade) away from the windscreen until it stops. As shown in the video, lift the hook that secures the brush to the arm, bend the brush slightly and let it come out of the umbrella handle attachment of the arm. In the same way, insert the new brush by inserting it into the attachment of the arm, then close the plastic hook. The operation is the same for both the front wipers and also for the rear, which does not even have the closing hook. Remember not to rest the arm against the windscreen while the brush is missing.

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.
