Operation: How to replace the Ford Focus Mk2 engine compartment lock

This guide shows you how to replace the Ford Focus Mk2 engine compartment lock. The first operation to be performed is to unscrew the two 10 mm bolts which hold the lock linkage in position. The old key pawl assembly can now be removed. Install the new element and lock it into place following the recess in the frame shell. Fit the lock linkage in place and reinstall the bolts. Check the correct functioning of the lock before taking to the road. If necessary, refit the front grille.

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.
