Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C - Years 1983-1993
Part: Headlight
Operation: How to remove and replace the headlight of a Mercedes C-Class

Let's see how to remove and replace the headlight of a Mercedes C-Class: open the bonnet by pulling the lever at the bottom right of the dashboard, let's put it in safety. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the locking pins of the central grille placed on the bumper, unscrew the pins of the headlight with a socket wrench and extract it from its seat (pins in the engine compartment). Once the lighthouse has been extracted, find the lighthouse inspection cap (located in the rear part of the lighthouse) and remove it. We mount the new bulbs and (always suitable type and size) we insert the lamp holder in the lighthouse housing. Finally we reassemble the new headlight with attached pins and test the correct functioning of the lights.

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.
