Operation: Replacement cigarette lighter on Toyota Corolla

Today we will show you how to replace the cigarette lighter on Toyota Corolla. As shown in the video, remove the side moldings of the central dashboard by hand. This way you can remove the gear lever base by hand. With a Phillips screwdriver unscrew the two lateral screws inherent in the lower part of the central dashboard and remove the entire drawer containing the cigarette lighter as well. Disconnect its connector. Unhook the metal catch, open the casing and at this point you can remove the part to be replaced, be it the drawer door or the cigarette lighter. Obviously proceed backwards for reassembly.

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.
