Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to replace the exterior mirror on the Mercedes Benz C220

The guide shows how to replace the exterior mirror on the Mercedes Benz C220 (W204). The first operation to carry out is to lower the window on the side on which to operate; at this point it is possible to detach the triangular cover of the mirror by pushing the edge towards the inside of the vehicle; disconnect the connector with a small screwdriver. The sound absorbing cover can now be removed. By opening the lid on the edge of the door you can disconnect the mirror control cable. With a Torx25 screwdriver it is possible to unscrew the fixing screws of the mirror; in this operation, keep the mirror in position to prevent it from falling. At this point the mirror must be rotated upwards to facilitate the exit of the lower part and then the upper one. While pulling away, pay attention to push out the connector. The disassembly procedure is finished; for the reassembly procedure just follow the steps backwards so far.

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.
