Toyota Yaris - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Yaris Xp90 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the gear knob of a Toyota Yaris?

To replace the gear knob on a Toyota Yaris, you simply need to pull it vigorously upwards. Make sure the gear lever is in neutral position or in a position that facilitates the removal of the knob. Firmly grip the gear knob and pull it upwards with constant force. It may be necessary to apply some pressure, but the knob should eventually detach from the gear lever. Once the knob is removed, you can replace it with a new one by inserting the new knob onto the gear lever and pushing it downwards until it securely locks into place. Make sure the new knob is installed correctly and securely before using the vehicle again.

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.
