Today we will see how to remove and replace, in simple and quick steps, the battery on the Peugeot 208 first series, with 1.2 Puretech petrol engine. First of all we open the bonnet of our car and begin to disconnect the terminals (positive and negative pole) of the battery, which we find on the right of the engine compartment; after which we remove the side control unit, together with the wiring, and unhook the two plastic tabs that we find at the bottom, as shown in the video.

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.
