Hyundai Santa Fe - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai Santa Fe MK 3 - Years 2012-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to open the door of Hyundai Santa Fe

Let's see how to open the car door with the remote control not working. We take our remote control and press the button to pop out the metal key. Once the key has been removed, remove the cover of the lock cylinder (above the handle). We pry the handle until the piece that covers the cylinder comes off. We put the key in the lock and open the car door. We take the cap and press the handle with our hands until we hear the locking click (we fix the cover in an optimal way so as not to have problems).

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.
