Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Checks and maintenance

Below we will see the instructions that will allow us to adjust the travel of the handbrake lever of the Ford Focus. First of all, we get on board the car and start to remove the handbrake lever boot, thus accessing the adjustment screw; to ensure that the handbrake works correctly, it is necessary that the brake shoes or pads are in good condition. Then we pull the brake cable, screwing the screw, to reduce the travel of the lever, carrying out various tests until we reach the correct travel of the handbrake lever!
