Skoda Octavia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Octavia 1U, MK 1 - Years 1996-2004
Part: Lock
Operation: How do you replace the door lock on Å koda Octavia?

In order to replace the Å koda Octavia door lock, you need to open the door and unscrew the two screws located on the side, so that the external lock next to the handle can be removed from its housing. Subsequently, you will have to remove the screws that fix the panel: these are located near the window lift button, in the seat of the internal handle and in the lower part of the panel. By detaching the panel, it will then be possible to disconnect the connectors and loosen the screws of the internal actuator of the door, so that it too can be removed.

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.
