Seat Altea - Video tutorial

Model: Seat Altea MK 1 - Years 2004-2015
Part: Fuse box
Operation: Location of fuse boxes and EOBD socket on Seat Altea

In the Seat Altea, as in the majority of cars, there are two fuse boxes. The first is located in the passenger compartment, on the left side of the dashboard, under the steering wheel. Here is a compartment with a push-fit plastic cover, and - as seen in the video - underneath we find not only the fuse box, but also the purple EOBD socket. In this box we also find the fuses for the cigarette lighter and for the rear electrical socket (2005/2006 versions) respectively #42 and #47; in the 2007 and later versions, however, the only cigarette lighter fuse is #30. The other fuse box is instead found in the engine compartment, on the right side above the battery (looking at the car from the front).

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.
