Ford Escape - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Escape MK 1 - Years 2001-2007
Operation: How to remove the windshield washer fluid reservoir of the Ford Escape.

Today we will see the procedure that will allow us to disassemble and replace the windshield washer reservoir of the Ford Escape. First, we open the engine hood of our car and start unscrewing the fastening screws that we find on the upper part of the bumper grille; then we unscrew the additional screws located on both sides of the front wheel arches, as shown in the video. At this point, we remove the front bumper, thus gaining access to the reservoir; we disconnect the fluid tube and unscrew its fastening screws to remove it and replace it with the new one, reassembling everything!

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.
