Operation: Removing the rear light on Smart Fortwo 453

In this video tutorial we will see how to disassemble the rear light on a Smart Fortwo 453, following these simple steps. First of all we open the boot lid and with a torx screwdriver we go to unscrew the side fixing screws of the light; then let's gently pull it outwards, and then disconnect the electrical connector of the bulbs, as shown in the video. At this point we are going to open the tabs to remove the lamp holder and access the bulbs; proceed with any replacement and reassemble everything, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
