Renault Twingo - Video tutorial

Model: Renault Twingo Twingo 1 - Years 1993-2007
Part: Crankshaft RPM sensor
Operation: Shaft sensor replacement on Renault Twingo

The PMS top dead center sensor informs the control unit of the piston position and therefore of the crankshaft rotation speed. Lift the hood and put on the special support rod. Locate the sensor very well shown in the video. Unscrew the two screws that secure it with a 10 mm socket wrench. Disconnect the sensor by simply lifting the small blue tab and pulling. Insert the new sensor and connect it to the socket, screw the two 10 mm screws first by hand and then with the key, pulling them well. Nothing easier! Operation completed. Good job!

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.
