Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Key
Operation: How to replace the key shell

If you have to replace the key case for any reason, following this video you will understand how to do it. Of course, before carrying out the operation, you must get the new spare shell. To begin, slide the button and remove the key. Then with a thin blade tool unclip the lid containing the button cell. Now you just have to try to open or cut the shell to be replaced, being very careful not to damage the circuit inside. Once the circuit has also been extracted, you can reinsert it in the new shell as shown in the images. Finally, replace the cover with the battery and the key.

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.
