Smart - Video tutorial

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Lambda sensor
Operation: How to remove the lambda probe from the Smart 450?

In order to replace the lambda probe on the Smart 450, you need to open the tailgate, so that the carpet positioned immediately behind the seats can be removed. Once the carpet has been removed, the underlying panel must also be detached in order to access the underlying components. The lambda probe will be immediately behind the coolant tank: the part can be replaced by disconnecting the connector and unscrewing the bolt that secures it. After removing the old probe, the new one can be installed.

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.
