Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Handle
Operation: How to remove the Mercedes C-Class external door handle

To remove the external door handle, proceed as follows. Detach the key cylinder frame by gently pulling it out; from the inside of the door move the rubber gasket to unscrew the cylinder fixing screw with a hex wrench. Once extracted, you can disconnect the rear cable by lifting the fixing tab; at this point you can unhook the handle from its supports by gently moving it towards the outside of the door. To reassemble the new handle, reposition it in its housing by first inserting the rubber seals supplied and then you can insert the key cylinder again by tightening the rear screw.

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.
