Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Headlight
Operation: How to change the headlights of the Ford Focus

If we need to replace the headlight on this car model, in the text and in the video that we report here we can find the indications and operating methods to carry out the operation. Once the bonnet has been opened it is necessary to unscrew the fixing screws of the front mask and then remove it. After that we can proceed to unscrew the screws placed above and to the side of the optical unit in order to release it by pulling it towards you. Be careful to disconnect the electrical power supply terminals behind. Then take the new headlight and place it and then screw the fixing screws of the latter again and finally reassemble the front bezel.

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.
