Peugeot 307 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 307 MK 1 - Years 2001-2009
Part: Bodywork
Operation: How to open the locked hood of a Peugeot 307 CC.

In this video, we see how to open the closed trunk of a Peugeot 307, whose opening mechanism is faulty. It is a 307 Coupe Cabriolet, and it cannot be opened from the outside, so we have to open it from the inside. In the video, they have created a kind of invention with a metal tube about 170 cm long and a screw on the tip. They lifted the parcel shelf a bit, and from the inside, the tip must reach from the cabin to the lock, exactly in the hole where there is a yellow button that unlocks the closure, pressing it with some force. This way, it opens easily, and the problem is solved.

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.
