How to Remove the Accelerator Pedal from a Mercedes A-Class W169

Model: Mercedes Classe A W169 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Accelerator

In this video, you can see how to remove the accelerator pedal from a Mercedes A-Class W169: you need a T20 Torx socket wrench for the pedal screws, a flathead screwdriver for the plastic clips, and long-nose pliers for the electrical connectors. First, disconnect the battery, turn the steering wheel fully to the left for better access, remove the 3 Torx screws that secure the cover under the steering wheel, and detach the plastic clips with a flathead screwdriver. Under the accelerator pedal, there are 2 electrical connectors, one large and one smaller, that must be disconnected; for the smaller one, you will need to use the pliers. Then, unscrew the two T20 bolts that secure the pedal bracket and slide it out to free it from its position. Pay attention to the orientation of the pedal before removal so that you can reinstall it the same way.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
