Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Headlight
Operation: The reason why condensation forms in the headlights; to know if we want to buy a used car

In this video we can discover why condensation easily forms inside the headlight of older cars, especially in the front one: It is very unlikely that it is a defect of the optical group, because all the components are well sealed and it is very difficult for water to enter; so most likely the reason is that this car has been in an accident, and the plastic part has given way, bending a little and therefore creating micro-infiltrations that have allowed water to pass through. So the problem is not so much the headlight itself, which could be easily replaced and also with a small expense, but what happened before.

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.
