Hyundai Santa Fe - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai Santa Fe MK 2 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Removing the external rear-view mirror

Removing the driver's side external rear-view mirror is very simple to perform and does not require the removal of the door panel; then start by removing the triangular-shaped plastic covering which is right in correspondence with the mirror by levering along the edges so as to be able to unhook it and access the fixing nuts of the mirror itself; using a 10 mm wrench, unscrew the three nuts that secure the exterior rear-view mirror to the door pillar, disconnect the control socket for adjustment and complete the removal of the mirror.

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.
