Renault Clio - Video tutorial

Model: Renault Clio Clio 3, MK 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Lock
Operation: How do i replace the tailgate lock on the Renault Clio?

In order to replace the Renault Clio tailgate lock, you need to open the tailgate, in order to loosen the four fixing screws of the internal panel to the tailgate: when these screws have been unscrewed, it will be possible to remove the internal panel and go to unscrew the screws that secure the lock itself. The latter can now be extracted from its housing by disconnecting the connector inside it; after the old lock has been completely removed, the new one can be connected by securing the bolts and fitting the tailgate panel.

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.
