Seat Altea - Video tutorial

Model: Seat Altea MK 1 - Years 2004-2015
Part: Steering wheel
Operation: How to remove the steering wheel of a Seat Altea

Before we can begin, we will have to go and sit in the driver's seat of our Seat Altea. So let's start by turning the steering wheel ninety degrees to the right. After that, we will have to go to unscrew and remove the rear screws that secure the airbag to the steering wheel itself. At this point, we can extract the airbag and then disconnect the relative plug. By doing so, we will have reached the central screw that secures the steering wheel to the steering column. We then proceed by unscrewing and removing this screw. When we have completed this step, we will be able to remove the steering wheel, and the disassembly will be complete.

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.
