Peugeot 3008 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 3008 P84, MK 2 - Years 2016-2023
Part: Key
Operation: How to start the engine on a Peugeot 3008 that does not detect the key

In this video we see how to start a Peugeot 3008 that, despite being opened normally with the remote control, did not start with the electronic key and button, because it showed "key not detected". For these cases there is a slot on the left side of the steering column, where to place the key in these cases, and where the key - even if discharged - is recognized by the car - which starts anyway. This was not the case because the remote control had correctly opened the door. Subsequently, the start-up began to work normally again. The reasons can be different, a drop in the signal, a temporary shielding: however, we have learned an important thing.

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.
