Jeep Patriot - Video tutorial

Model: Jeep Patriot MK 1 - Years 2007-2017
Part: Third brake light
Operation: Replacement of the central stop on Jeep Patriot

Today we will show you a really simple operation: how to replace the bulb on the third central stop of a Jeep Patriot. Working even with the trunk closed, unscrew the two screws shown in the video and placed on the sides of the horizontal spotlight. Once this is done, you can already extract the spotlight from its seat and disconnect its connector, so that it is totally free. Now, accessing from the back of the spotlight, extract the relevant bulb from its seat and insert an equivalent one. Reconnect the connector and refit the spotlight above the trunk, tightening the two fixing screws. Already done!

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.
