Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Lock
Operation: How to remove tailgate locks on Mercedes C-Class

First you have to remove the internal panel of the tailgate, and to do this it is sufficient to pry with a plastic wedge in the slots of the same, which is fixed to the tailgate with six plastic clips and two iron clips. At this point unscrew the four screws located at the height of the lock (first remove the screw covers) and remove the cover. Once you have arrived here, you can carry out tests, as shown in the video, to identify which part of the lock is blocked, or remove it by unscrewing the fixing bolts and disconnecting the cables. For reassembly, all that remains is to proceed in reverse.

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.
