Vauxhall Corsa - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa E - Years 2014-2019
Part: Battery
Operation: Battery replacement for Opel Corsa

In this video, we see how to proceed with the replacement of the battery in the Opel Corsa. We open the hood of the engine compartment, and we will find the battery on the driver's side. We start by loosening the negative terminal by loosening its clamp, then we remove the cover that protects the plate mounted above the positive terminal. We loosen the clamp and unscrew the screws that secure three cables to the plate. We loosen the fastening tabs on the sides of the battery and remove the entire plate. Using a socket wrench with an extension, we unscrew the mounting bracket at the base of the battery so that we can remove it. We clean the housing and place the new battery, then we reassemble the wiring by reversing the steps.

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.
