Toyota Prius - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Prius Xw30, MK 2 - Years 2009-2015
Part: Battery
Operation: How to replace the 12V battery of the Toyota Prius

Today we will see, in this video tutorial, how to disassemble and replace the 12 Volt battery of the Toyota Prius, in simple and quick steps. First of all, let's find our 12 V battery, which we find under the luggage compartment floor; we then open the tailgate and remove the compartment to access it, as shown in the video. At this point we disconnect both battery terminals (positive and negative pole); then unscrew the screws of the central bracket to remove and replace the battery with the new one, having the same amperage as the original one!

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.
