Vauxhall Meriva - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Meriva Meriva A, MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Battery
Operation: Battery replacement on Opel Meriva

Do not insert the ignition key and raise the bonnet supporting it with the special rod, first pulling the lever on the left (and at the bottom) of the steering wheel. The battery on the Opel Meriva is on your right and replacing it is particularly simple: just disconnect it and unscrew the pins of the terminals, perhaps with a socket wrench. Now you can remove it and reinsert the new battery. Make sure that the new part is suitable for your car, check the manual supplied with the purchase of the car. Screw in the locking pins and once the battery is connected, check its 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.
