Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Car stereo
Operation: How to unlock the radio of an Opel Astra G version.

In this video, we see how to enter the security code in the Opel Astra G version car radio, after the battery has been disconnected, or after the radio has been replaced. When we turn on the radio, we see the message asking for the code. The next step is to press and hold the "as" button for about two seconds. Once this is done, four dashed lines will appear on the display, on which we will enter our code. We will do this by pressing the first four keys, as many times as there are numbers to enter, as shown by the YouTuber in the example, until we see the code number on the screen. At this point, we press and hold the "as" button for a few seconds and the radio will be unlocked.

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.
