To replace the handbrake cable, first remove the central tunnel cover; once the cover is off, disconnect the cable from the handbrake lever and pass it through the floor, effectively pulling it out of the cabin; at this point, lift the vehicle and continue by removing the cable from its housing (you will need to remove the heat shield located above the exhaust); before disconnecting the cable from the adjustment system, measure the length of the adjustment to install the new cable in the same position; then complete the removal of the old cable, insert the new one through its guides along the floor until it enters the cabin through the floor; connect the cable to the handbrake lever and then complete the connection to the adjustment system, respecting the previously noted measurement.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
