Smart Forfour - Video tutorial

Model: Smart Forfour MK 1, W454 - Years 2004-2006
Operation: How to replace the key battery of a Smart Forfour

To replace the battery in the key of a Smart Forfour car, first of all you need to have a small screwdriver with a star tip, a small screwdriver with a flat tip and the correct model of the battery to be replaced, i.e. flat type CR 2016 3V. We take the key and unscrew the small screw on the back of the same; insert the tip of the flat-tip screwdriver into the edge of the key body and lever it up to open it. At this point we extract the exhausted battery and proceed to replace it and then close the body by fixing the screw removed initially.

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.
