Honda Civic - Video tutorial

Model: Honda Civic MK 8 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Airbags
Operation: How to reset airbag on Honda Civic

In this video tutorial we can see how you can reset the Airbag warning light that came on on a Honda Civic. The first thing to do is get into the car and put the handbrake on; insert the key and turn on the instrument panel; now you can see that the airbag warning light stays on (SIDE AIRBAG OFF). Turn off the ignition and open the door; under the steering wheel there is a small plastic cover (it opens without the need for tools), at this point you will see that there are connectors; the yellow connector is used to erase the memory (MDS connector), it is what we need to reset the airbag. Then disconnect this cable and using a common paper clip as shown in the video you will be able to restore the function of the airbag. When the light goes off, remove the clip and then insert the connector.

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.
