Toyota Avalon - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Avalon Xx30 - Years 2005-2012
Operation: How to install a cup holder on the center console of a Toyota Avalon.

Actually, here we are talking about replacing the damaged cup holder that was already present in this Toyota Avalon. It is a part that we found on eBay for $24.77. We start by removing the old piece from its housing, applying force from the inside of the central console compartment. Then, there are two screws that we need to remove in order to pull out the damaged piece. After cleaning the area where we need to reassemble the cup holder (in fact, the reason it could have been damaged was due to extreme neglect it was subjected to), we proceed to install the new piece, which is connected to the compartment only by the two screws we had removed earlier. Now, the mechanism works perfectly.

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.
