How to Replace the Handbrake Cable on the Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Parking brake

To replace the handbrake cable on the Ford Focus, lift the car using a jack or ramp so that the rear wheels are off the ground: once the vehicle is raised, remove the rear wheels to access the components inside. One end of the handbrake cable can be disconnected, then disconnect the other end located at the central lower part of the car. After both ends have been removed, insert a new cable, reassembling all previously removed components.
