Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Rear bumper
Operation: How to remove the rear bumper

To remove the rear bumper, once the trunk has been opened, unscrewing the screws attached to the clips along the upper edge of the bumper near the trunk stop. Then you have to remove the two rear wheels to unscrew the screw and remove the clip in order to move the wheel arch protection. Once this is done we can then unscrew the nut that fixes the bumper to the bracket. Obviously the same operation must be repeated on the other side of the bumper. Now all that remains is to remove the last clips from under the bumper as shown in the images and finally detach the bumper starting from one end and then the other in a symmetrical way. Car model: Ford Focus Year: 1999 - 2007 Tools required: Phillips screwdriver, 10 mm socket wrench

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.
