Operation: How to deactivate the START&STOP system of the Ford Focus

The START&STOP system of a vehicle can be activated and deactivated at any time, although sometimes the system deactivates itself to preserve the battery charge. Today, however, we will explain how to temporarily deactivate the START&STOP system of the Ford Focus. First, we get into the car and turn on the instrument panel. Immediately after, we press the "A" button, located on the lower central dashboard. After pressing the button three times in a row, a message will be displayed on the instrument panel confirming the deactivation of the system.

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.
