Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to start the Lancia Ypsilon in an emergency

We will see in this video how to start the Lancia Ypsilon third series in an emergency, or the model currently on sale. This operation is necessary if the car goes into protection and does not allow classic ignition by turning the key. We remind you that it is an operation to be carried out only in case of extreme necessity, such as taking the car to the mechanic. To carry out this work, equip yourself with an obd reader, which can be purchased with a few tens of euros online or in spare parts shops. The car's OBD socket is located on the left side of the steering column, in correspondence with the glove compartment. Let's connect and reset the engine failure warning light.

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.
