Operation: How to reset the automatic transmission of the Ford Focus

If you are having trouble with the automatic transmission of your Ford Focus, the solution may be much simpler and cheaper than expected. In fact, if it is an electronic problem, it will be enough to perform a manual reset to get it back to optimal conditions. To do this, just follow the instructions in our mini guide. First, turn on the ignition and put it in neutral. Then turn off the ignition and wait about 15 seconds. Immediately afterwards, set the gear lever to P (parking). Switch the ignition off and on again and wait another 15 seconds. Put the gear lever back into neutral and turn on the ignition. The restore is complete.

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.
