Lexus IS - Video tutorial

Model: Lexus IS MK 1 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Dashboard
Operation: Removal of the dashboard center console

First of all, it is suggested to move the gear lever backwards to facilitate the disassembly and extraction of the console. Unhook and remove the push-button panel immediately below the monitor, pulling it forwards, and disconnect the relative sockets. Similarly, release the glove box with the air vents located above the car radio. At this point, unscrew the four fixing screws of the central console of the climate control and monitor controls (both the upper and lower ones) to extract it from its seat, subsequently disconnecting the sockets connected to it.

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.
