Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Airbags
Operation: How do you remove the airbag unit on the dashboard of the Mercedes C-Class?

Before removing the airbag unit from the passenger side of the Mercedes C-Class, make sure that there are no errors stored in the control unit. Next, the battery must be disconnected and the pillar trim removed from the front passenger side. At this point the glovebox must be removed: in correspondence with the AUX bushing, push the fastening ring upwards and then pass the bushing through the covering. Now you will have to disconnect the cover located on the upper part of the dashboard by removing the pins. The center console and climate control controls will also need to be removed, as shown in the video. Together with these you will have to remove the instrument panel, and loosen the screws that secure the panel. Lastly, the screws that secure the dashboard must be removed, which can be lifted and removed. Under the latter there will be the airbag that can be removed and replaced.

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.
