Hyundai I20 - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai I20 MK 1, PB - Years 2008-2014
Part: Hand brake
Operation: How to adjust the handbrake on the Hyundai I20

In this video, it is shown how to adjust the handbrake of the Hyundai I20. To be able to adjust the handbrake of this car, you need to climb into the back seats of the car, remove the cover in the central storage compartment to access the cable. To more comfortably adjust the handbrake, you can remove the small bolt with a 10mm wrench to lift the compartment and insert a 13mm wrench into the bottom part to more easily reach the cable socket. At this point, screw it in until the handbrake is properly adjusted. Once adjusted, remove the wrench, reinsert the bolt, and close it by reattaching the cover of the compartment.

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.
