Ford Fiesta - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Fiesta MK 6, Fiesta 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Removal of the external rearview mirror and compatibility with the electric mirror

Even if your Fiesta's rearview mirrors are manual, it is possible that they are compatible with electrically operated rearview mirrors. To make sure, just take a look at the fuse box wiring diagram, as illustrated in this tutorial. If they are compatible, you can proceed with the disassembly of the door panel: first remove the handle cover, the interior handle and the window lifting buttons, and then with the help of a flat-blade screwdriver, or better still a thin spatula, you can unhook the panel by levering all the way around. The Fiesta model presented in this video is the one with the initials MK7 (in production since 2008).

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.
