Mazda Mx 5 - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda Mx 5 ND, MK 4 - Years 2015-2023
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: The alarm system that detects obstacles of the Mazda MX 5.

If your Mazda MX 5 is equipped with the "rear cross traffic alert system", this system will signal with an acoustic signal that approaching vehicles are present during the reverse maneuver. This system can be activated and deactivated as desired by pressing the appropriate button located on the central dashboard. If turned off, the indicator light will flash. Some owners of Mazda vehicles with this type of system have complained that the system does not work in certain situations, such as: -vehicle on an incline; -vehicle reversing at more than 10 KM/H; -the sensor area is obstructed; -the vehicle is approaching from directly behind.

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.
