Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Dashboard
Operation: Car dashboard replacement

To be efficient over time, your car needs constant maintenance. For example, the cockpit needs to be refurbished. The dashboard replacement operation is very simple and can be done by doing it yourself, without the help of a specialist. The wiring is identical whether it is analog or digital. The operation is also quite fast. The upper eyelid is removed, the old painting is removed and the new one is put on, you will have to deal with a screw at most. The instrument panel will only read what is transmitted to it by the control units.

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.
