Skoda Fabia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Fabia Mark3, NJ - Years 2014-2021
Part: Key
Operation: How to replace the battery of a Skoda Fabia key

The first thing to do when you want to replace the battery of a Skoda Fabia vehicle key is to insert a flat-head screwdriver into the side where the ignition key usually rests. Once the screwdriver is inserted, you can leverage it outwards to open the remote control cover and easily remove the battery. Then, insert a new battery, model CW2032, and close the remote control key cover. All that's left is to go near the Fabia car to open and close it. If the remote control still doesn't work despite the new battery, reprogramming may be necessary.

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.
