Toyota Yaris Sedan - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Yaris Sedan Xp90 - Years 2005-2013
Operation: How to repair the central glove box of a Toyota Yaris Sedan

On the Toyota Yaris Sedan there is a central glove box which may not close at all or not close perfectly. The problem is not given by the small buttons on the front of the lid, as it would seem at first glance, but by the two small spots on the side both on the compartment and on the lid itself. These two specks, with use, flatten themselves and therefore the lid - which is pressurized - at that point does not "stick" anymore. The only way to restore the glove box is to recreate the thickness, with scotch tape which then becomes opaque, or with a millimeter spacer, or with two-component glue, making it dry well and then filing it.

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.
