Part: Pump
Operation: How to replace the washer pump in the Opel Astra?

As we can see in this tutorial, replacing the washer fluid pump in your Opel Astra is an extremely simple and fast operation. First of all, lift the front left area of the car with a jack, taking all the necessary precautions, then remove the wheel and undo the screws indicated on the front wheel arch. Once disassembled, we will have obtained access to the pump, which can be removed from the tank by simply pulling it upwards. After disconnecting both the power connector and the tube, we can reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.

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.
