Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Glove box
Operation: Drawer disassembly instructions

The disassembly of the glovebox is quite simple to carry out and does not require any special equipment and also comes complete with the door; Is fixed to the dashboard through five torx screws: one is located on the side, hidden by the triangular dashboard cover which must then be removed to access the screw itself (the cover is fixed with pressure clips and to remove it you suggests removing the door seal); two other screws are located along the upper closing edge of the door and the last two at the bottom of the door sill; to reach the latter, the sound-absorbing coating must be removed. Once all the screws have been removed, the glovebox can be removed.

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.
