Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Battery
Operation: Ford Focus MK1 remote control key battery replacement

In this video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the remote control key battery of a Ford Focus first series, in simple steps. First we take our remote control in hand and go to pry something pointed in the hole, as shown in the video; after removing the key from the remote control we go to open the same in two parts, in order to access the chip and the battery. At this point let's remove it and replace it with the new one, of the right type (in this case a 3V CR 2032). Let's insert it in the correct direction and reassemble everything!

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.
