Ford Mustang - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Mustang MK 5, S197 - Years 2005-2014
Part: Handle
Operation: How to replace the exterior door handle of the Ford Mustang?

To be able to replace the exterior door handle of the Ford Mustang you need to loosen the screws that secure the door panel: these screws are located in the seat of the interior handle and near the window control panel. Once these have been unscrewed, it will be possible to detach the internal connectors to completely remove the panel. At this point it will be possible to loosen the screws that fix the handle from the inside, so that it can be removed from the outside. Finally, it will be possible to position a new handle, fixing it and assembling all the parts previously removed.

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.
