Jeep Cherokee - Video tutorial

Model: Jeep Cherokee KL, MK 5 - Years 2013-2023
Part: Starter motor
Operation: How do you replace the starter motor?

In this video we learn the procedure that allows us to replace a starter motor. The car used as an example is a Jeep Cherokee, but the replacement works roughly the same way in all cars. Before starting, we need to disconnect the battery for safety. We lift the car and position ourselves underneath it as close as possible to the starter motor. We locate the three anchor bolts and unscrew them, then disconnect the electrical connectors. We remove the starter motor and install the new one by connecting the plugs that we detached from the old starter motor and repositioning the unscrewed bolts.

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.
