Video tutorial

In this video, you can see what happens if you accidentally touch the electronic handbrake button while driving a Renault 3008 (but generally applies to all vehicles with an electronic handbrake). It may happen that inadvertently, while reaching for something in the centre console, or a child sitting in the front seat, touches this very sensitive button.

What happens if you are in motion? The YouTuber demonstrates this. Nothing happens if the speed is high.

If the speed is very low, it gives a slight "hint" of brake engagement, but just a hint. Therefore, always be very careful not to touch this button while in motion; you can be quite assured that nothing bad will happen.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
