Ford Fiesta - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Fiesta MK 6, Fiesta 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Steering wheel
Operation: How to remove the steering wheel of a Ford Fiesta MK6.

In this video we see how to remove the steering wheel of a Ford Fiesta MK6 version: first of all we will have to remove the steering wheel controls, which are held from behind by small screws. To remove the airbag, we need to insert thin screwdrivers into the appropriate slots located on the back of the steering wheel. Maybe get help from someone, because the screwdrivers must be inserted horizontally, so that they enter precisely into the slot that releases the airbag button, from both sides. In this way, the module is released, and at that point it will be enough to remove the electrical connectors to remove it completely. With a 17 socket wrench it will be easy at that point to remove the screw that holds the steering wheel to the steering column.

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.
