Ford Ka - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Ka MK 2 - Years 2008-2016
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How do i replace the exterior mirror on the Ford Ka?

In order to replace the exterior rearview mirror of the Ford Ka you need to remove the plastic cover inside the door which is located in correspondence with the mirror. Once this cover has been removed, it will be possible to unscrew the 8 mm screws located in the underlying part, also disconnecting the relative connector. When all these parts have been removed, it will be possible to slide the rearview mirror off the outside of the door, so that it can be replaced with a new spare part. After removal, the new mirror can be inserted and fixed.

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.
