Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W202 - Years 1993-2000
Part: Air conditioning
Operation: Car air conditioning control

Undoubtedly, the car air conditioning is an essential comfort element that improves the life of motorists, especially during periods of summer weather. Knowing how it works can help its correct use without waste. Air conditioners for cars work exactly like those for homes by exploiting the physical principle of convection, in other words when gases or liquids of different temperatures come into contact, a heat transfer takes place between them and the colder atoms are directed towards the warmer ones. and viceversa. The recharge check of the car air conditioning should normally be carried out every 2 years or every 60,000 km of travel, since this is not one of the checks contemplated by the inspection coupon, it must be remembered separately. Auto-refill kits exist in auto parts stores, together with eye protection, a pressure gauge and refrigerant gas. Make sure the system is not leaking or recharging it would be useless for operation.

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.
