Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Engine oil pressure sensor replacement

First of all, it is suggested to carry out this repair with a cold engine to avoid unpleasant burns, also because the oil pressure sensor is located at the rear of the engine, located directly on the engine block, between the muffler and the oil filter. Once the car has been raised on a lift, intercept the sensor, disconnect the socket connected to it and unscrew it from its seat; therefore check compatibility with the new sensor (diameter, thread pitch and any codes shown on the sensor). Then screw the new sensor, taking care to tighten it correctly and reconnect the socket.

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.
