Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Fuse box
Operation: How to replace the fuse box on a Ford Focus MK1.

In this video, we can see how to change the fuse box located inside the passenger compartment of the Ford Focus Mk1. The box is located inside the glove compartment and is secured to the plastics with two seven-millimeter bolts. Once we have unscrewed them, we need to push the two pins underneath the box so that it can come out of its housing. Then, we need to flip it over and remove all the electrical connectors underneath, in order to free the box. It will be important to mark the position of each individual socket so that we can put it back in its proper place.

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.
