Video tutorial

In this video, see how to repair the tailgate on the Ford Fiesta MK5: to open the motor, use a utility knife, sliding the blade several times between the two housings; inside, you will find the motor, which is only resting. The brush block disassembles easily: the issue with these actuators is that the little grease applied during assembly deposits between the brushes and the rotor, so simply clean the rotor and everything will work as before.

You can see everything clearly in the video, which shows the various components and how to reassemble the part before refitting it to the vehicle.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
