Smart - Video tutorial

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Lambda sensor
Operation: How to replace the lambda probe in the Smart ForTwo?

As we can see in this tutorial, replacing the lambda probe in the Smart ForTwo 453 is an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, we will wait for the engine to cool completely to avoid burns. Let's start by opening the trunk, then remove the bottom panel and access the engine compartment. Subsequently, since the space available is very little, we can facilitate the work by removing the bumper by removing the various bolts indicated. Once this is done, unscrew the probe with a 22mm wrench, disconnect the connector and mount the spare following 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.
