Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Headlight
Operation: Removing the headlight on the Ford Focus MK1 (from 2000)

Let's see in this video how to remove the headlight on the Ford Focus first series, following these simple steps. First of all we open and lift the bonnet of our car and start by removing the plastic bulkhead that we find on the opening of the bonnet; then we go to unscrew the fixing screws of the headlight, using a socket wrench. Once the headlight has been released, we can remove it from its seat by disconnecting the electrical cables of the bulbs; we just have to replace them and reassemble everything, applying the reverse procedure of disassembly!

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.
