Repair of a soft top on Smart 450

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Convertible top

If your Smart top (we are talking about a Smart 450) no longer moves, by pressing the appropriate button in the passenger compartment, the causes may be more than one, but the most probable is the disconnection of the cable on the side of the same. . The cable is well shown in the video and, to access it, you will have to manually move the hood until you discover not only the aforementioned cable but also the plastic stop into which it must be inserted. To do this, help yourself with a screwdriver and try to make sure that the cable then remains stationary in this seat. Close the hood manually and try to operate it with the button.

How to Replace the Fuel Pump on an Opel Corsa C

Usually, upon the first ignition of the dashboard, a sound similar to a spray can be heard from the rear of the cabin: this is the fuel pump pressurising the system and preparing to supply fuel to the engine for ignition; if this sound is not heard, start by checking the integrity of the relevant power fuse, and if it is intact, verify that voltage reaches the power connector; if current is present, you can also try powering the pump directly to confirm it is faulty; replacing it is very simple, just disconnect the connector and hoses, then unclip the retaining ring and remove it to replace it with a new one.
