Ford Transit - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Transit MK 8 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How do I reset the Ford Transit Service light?

In order to reset the Ford Transit service warning light, the accelerator and brake pedals must be pressed while the instrument panel is off. By keeping them pressed, you will then have to turn the key to turn on the instrument panel, noting that the wrench icon will still be active. If you wait a few moments with the accelerator and brake pedals down, you will notice that the wrench warning light will go out automatically. After the warning light goes out, it will be possible to switch the instrument panel off and on again to check that the reset has been carried out correctly.

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.
