Model: Hyundai I30 MK 2, GD - Years 2011-2016
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to open the locked tailgate on the Hyundai I30?

In the Hyundai I30, it can happen that the trunk hatch gets stuck, for example due to a malfunction in the corresponding button or lock actuator. In this case, we can perform an emergency opening following the procedure shown in this tutorial. First, we open the right rear door, then we locate the indicated lever, activate it, and lower the backrest completely. Next, we go inside the trunk compartment, insert the key into the slot located in the central area, and unlock the lock. At this point, we can open the trunk hatch and replace the faulty element.

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.
