Mazda Mpv - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda Mpv LW - Years 1999-2006
Part: Alternator
Operation: Disassembly and replacement of the alternator

This video shows us how to disassemble or replace our alternator. First we lift the machine and remove the front rim on the driver's side and unscrew the steering arm to facilitate the installation of the alternator. Later we will have to disassemble the brake disc and unscrew the suspension, then the wheel hub up to remain with the joint of the drive shaft with the thousand lines. Once all this has been done we will finally be able to disassemble our alternator. Once the old alternator has been removed, mount the new one, adjusting the belt to the right tension and only at the end can we reassemble everything.

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.
