Skoda Octavia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Octavia 1U, MK 1 - Years 1996-2004
Part: Windscreen wipers
Operation: Where is the front wiper relay located in the Skoda Octavia?

In this video, we can see where the front windshield wiper relay is located in the Skoda Octavia, one of the first components to check if the wipers suddenly stop working. As shown, the relay in question is located inside the cabin, specifically in the lower right area of the dashboard. To access the fuse box, simply unscrew the two indicated screws and release the protective panel. The relay is labeled with the code 377 and is the largest one in that box. In case of a malfunction, make sure to use a replacement with the same characteristics.

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.
