Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W202 - Years 1993-2000
Part: Dashboard
Operation: Disassembly and replacement of the instrument panel

The instrument panel of the car in question is simply stuck inside the dashboard: to be able to remove it, simply pull it forward. To do this, it is suggested to fold the tip of a resistant steel wire not very thick, for about 3-4 millimeters so as to be able to insert it laterally, between the instrument panel and the dashboard, rotate it so as to wedge the tip on the edge instrument panel itself and pull it forwards by extracting the instrument panel from its seat. Once released, unhook the sockets connected at the back and extract it laterally. Then bring the new instrument panel closer, connect the sockets and press it into its seat until it locks into place.

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.
