Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra F - Years 1991-1998
Part: Crankshaft RPM sensor
Operation: How to remove rpm sensor on Opel Astra

Let's see how to disassemble the crankshaft rpm sensor on Opel Astra: we raise the front engine hood, we secure the same with the holding rod. We identify the crankshaft rpm sensor, with a socket wrench we unscrew the locking pins (if present next to the valve). We detach the piece from the motor seat and compare it with the new piece. We mount the piece with the respective locking pins and connect the crankshaft rpm sensor. At the end of the sensor assembly, we check the correct functioning of the piece for maintenance.

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.
