Smart - Video tutorial

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Coolant temperature sensor
Operation: How do I replace the water temperature sensor on the Smart Fortwo?

In order to replace the water temperature sensor on the Smart Fortwo you have to open the front hood of the car, in order to have access to the components located inside the engine compartment: it will be necessary to unscrew the screws that secure the filter box air, so that it is completely removed. After the removal has taken place, on the right side of the housing of the box you will find the water temperature sensor, which will simply have to be extracted from its housing. In this way it will be possible to insert the new one, also mounting the filter box.

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.
