Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Roof Rack Bars
Operation: How to install the roof racks on the Ford Focus?

In this tutorial, we can see how to mount the roof racks on the Ford Focus, a very simple and quick operation. In this model, there are no pre-existing holes, so we will need to get suitable bars like the ones shown in the video. First of all, we open the doors, then we adjust the distance between the supports of the bars and position them at about halfway up the door. Next, we tighten the fixing bolts, adjusting the arms also in height, and repeat the operation for the second bar. In case we want to disassemble everything, we just need to follow the reverse procedure.

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.
