Part: Engine
Operation: Disassembly of the body and engine

If you need to disassemble the entire body, to make changes or repairs, whether radical for extreme off-roading, or partial, look at the images in the video. To carry out this process it is essential to have a good assortment of keys, various tools, and to have good mechanical knowledge. First of all, the grille and all the front fairings are removed, then the bolts that hold the body to the frame are unscrewed, in order to free it. Once the bodywork is totally free from the rest of the off-road vehicle, as shown in the video, it is possible to tie it with a strap, lift it carefully and move the motor-wheel frame assembly from underneath with particular care.

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.
