Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Lock
Operation: Removing the rear lid lock

In order to remove the rear lid lock, it is first necessary to remove the plastic cover that covers the inside of the tailgate; once the hood has been opened, remove the cover from the handles to access the fixing pins underneath (10 mm socket wrench); once the pins have been removed, pry along the edges of the plastic panel to release the snap fasteners and completely remove the cover; at this point unhook the socket from the lock and unscrew the three torx-type pins that fix it to the bodywork to complete the disassembly and to be able to remove it from its seat.

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.
