Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Antenna
Operation: How to replace the antenna in a Smart Fortwo 451?

Especially in older cars where the antenna is more extended, it may happen that this is damaged and there is a need to replace it. It is a simple operation, we only need a replacement antenna that can be purchased in the various online or physical shops. Being a generic spare part, different attachments will be supplied together with the antenna so that it can be applied in various models. We hold the antenna of the car from the base to rotate it counterclockwise in order to unscrew it, identify the suitable attachment among those available and apply it to the spare antenna, finally screw it into the base of the car.

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.
