Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Headlight
Operation: How to change the light bulb on Ford Focus

Raise the bonnet by first pulling the lever near the pedal board and then supporting it with the relative stick. Before changing the light bulb we will have to remove the light itself: unscrew the 3 torx 10 that fix the light (one to the mudguard and two to the frame). Raise the car with the jack and also unscrew the lower torx which is located between the engine and the bumper. Remove the plastic mask by levering with a flat screwdriver to detach it from its seat, and remove the two relative screws. Remove the light by disconnecting the cables. Now, to change the bulb at the end of its life, simply remove the plastic cover below the headlight and unscrew the bulb itself.

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.
