Seat Ibiza - Video tutorial

Model: Seat Ibiza 6L - Years 2002-2009
Part: Dashboard
Operation: How to fix the light switch on the Seat Ibiza.

In this video, we see how to repair the light selector on the Seat Ibiza: what wasn't working were the position lights and the low beams. We removed the selector knob by taking it out of its housing: It wasn't difficult, just pry it a little with a plastic spatula and then pull it towards us, removing the electrical connectors at the bottom. Once extracted, we remove the light plate and lift the metal connectors: now we can see where the problem is: Here we clearly see that a connector is burned and bent due to the temperature. We will need to lift this terminal and remove it completely by filing down the plastic parts that hold it and the rivets that fix it. We straighten the bent baseboard and sand it with sandpaper so that it returns to the same shape as the other parts. Then we put the rivets back in place and reposition everything inside the cylinder, with the light plate. We can put everything back in place and test it.

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.
