Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Light bulb
Operation: How to replace the glove compartment light in the Ford Focus?

Replacing the Ford Focus glove compartment light is a very simple and quick operation, let's see how to proceed in this tutorial. Before doing this, let's make sure the key is not inserted. Let's start by opening and emptying the glove compartment, then unscrew the screws indicated on the upper edge of the same. Then we grab the frame, pull it slightly downwards and identify the back of the light in question, in which there is a fixing clip to be released with the help of a flat-tipped screwdriver. Once this is done we will be able to remove the bulb, insert the spare part 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.
