Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Coolant temperature sensor
Operation: Where is the coolant temperature sensor in the Opel Astra?

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the coolant temperature sensor in your Opel Astra, a very simple and fast operation. Before doing this, we obviously wait for the engine to cool down in order to operate in complete safety. Let's start by opening the bonnet, after which we locate the sensor in question located in the lower right area of the engine, to our left when looking at the vehicle from the front. At this point we disconnect the connector, unscrew the sensor with a 19mm wrench and quickly insert the spare part so as to minimize the loss of liquid.

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.
