Part: Alternator
Operation: How to remove the alternator of the RAM 1500 V8

In this video tutorial we will see how to disassemble and replace the RAM 1500 V8 alternator, following the instructions below. First we open the bonnet of our car and start by removing the air filter box, disconnecting the intake sleeve; then we loosen the belt tensioner to remove the serpentine belt, as shown in the video. At this point we are going to unscrew the fixing screws of our alternator, using a socket wrench; we disconnect the electrical part to replace the alternator with the new one, with the original spare!

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.
