Operation: How to open and close the front hood of the Peugeot 207

When you need to open the front hood to carry out some checks, you must take care to observe some precautions: first start by placing the car on a flat surface, apply the handbrake, turn off the engine and intercept the opening lever placed at the bottom left of the driver's side, on the door pillar; once the safety has been released, look for the opening lever under the edge of the bonnet and press it sideways to open the lock and then be able to lift the bonnet; then apply the support rod and carry out the checks; at the end of this procedure, unhook the support bracket, lower the hood up to about 15 cm from the front cross member and let it go to allow it to close.

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.
