Operation: How to reset the Sync software on Ford Ecosport

In this short video tutorial, we will see how to perform a forced reset of the Sync software on a first-generation Ford Ecosport, a model produced from 2012 to 2022. The Sync software is an onboard computer software that allows you to connect your mobile phone to the vehicle via Bluetooth, enabling various operations to be performed using voice commands. If a malfunction occurs that cannot be resolved through a software update, we can try performing a reset by briefly removing the fuse that controls it and then reinserting it.

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.
