Ford Fiesta - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Fiesta MK 6, Fiesta 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Starter motor
Operation: How do you replace the starter motor on a Ford Fiesta?

To be able to replace the starter motor on the Ford Fiesta, you need to open the bonnet so that you can access the components located inside the engine compartment: the motor will be on the left side of the latter, near the flywheel. To be able to achieve this, it is recommended to completely disassemble the front bumper and also the plastic cover of the upper part of the engine block. When the piece has been identified, it will be possible to remove it by disconnecting the connectors and unscrewing the bolts that fix it to its supports, so that it will be replaced with a new one.

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.
