How to Install a Dash Cam on a Ford Fiesta MK8

Model: Ford Fiesta MK 7, MK VII, Fiesta 7 - Years 2017-2023
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, you will see how to install a dash cam on a Ford Fiesta by connecting it directly to the fuse box, which is located behind the glove compartment; rotate the two catches found inside and remove them. This way, the drawer will drop down to the carpet, exposing the fuse box. Look for the fuse that controls the parking assist module in the user manual, so it turns off when you switch off the vehicle. You will then use a fuse-shaped adapter with two slots, placing the original fuse outside and the one provided with the dash cam inside. Next, connect the negative to the bolt behind the panel you opened, and the positive to the connection you made. All cables can be grouped under the cover, then run the cable under the door seal, pulling it down; remove the scuff plate (which is clipped in) and run the cable up to the height of the airbag, then pass it between the pillar and the headlining, and then along the contact between the headlining and the windscreen, until you reach the point where you intend to mount the camera. We recommend the code B07J35BF35 from Amazon, priced at £109.95 with free delivery.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
