Renault Megane - Video tutorial

Model: Renault Megane Megane 2 - Years 2002-2010
Part: Airbags
Operation: Where is the airbag control unit located in the Renault Megane?

In this video, we can see where the airbag control unit is located in the Renault Megane, useful in case we need to replace it due to a malfunction. As shown, it is positioned inside the passenger compartment, precisely in the rear area of the central tunnel. To access it and subsequently replace it, it will be enough to unclip the ashtray and then the frame of the handbrake. The control unit is fixed to the frame with two bolts and is connected to a large connector. Make sure to disconnect it with the vehicle turned off, otherwise we could damage the system.

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.
