Land Rover Range Rover - Video tutorial

Model: Land Rover Range Rover MK 2 - Years 2012-2021
Part: Key
Operation: How to replace the key shell of a Land Rover.

Today we will explain how to replace the shell of a Range Rover remote control. After purchasing a new remote control, the first step will be to replace the internal microchip with the original one. To remove the microchip from the old remote control, we will first need to open it in half. To do this quickly and easily, we can use a hacksaw and pliers as shown in the video, or we can use a screwdriver to open the remote control, extract the metal key, and then the rest. Once we have obtained the original microchip, we will insert it into the new remote control. Take the new remote control and with the help of a screwdriver, open it by levering on one side, and insert the original microchip inside. Insert the battery and close everything back up.

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.
