Model: Jeep Grand Cherokee MK 4, WK2 - Years 2010-2021
Part: Gearbox
Operation: How to unlock the automatic gear lever of the Jeep Grand Cherokee

The guide shows you how to unlock the Jeep Grand Cherokee's automatic gearshift lever. This procedure allows you to unlock the automatic gearshift lever in the event of a flat battery, in the event of an accident or in the event of electrical problems with the machine. To do this, it is necessary to lift the armrest of the driver's seat and remove the protective plastic from the lever. Using a screwdriver or pointed object, disengage the lever lock and lift it to the maximum open position. At this point it is possible to move the gearbox and move the vehicle.

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.
