Operation: What does the engine warning light indicate?

The engine malfunction indicator light is called the 1000 light, because its activation does not refer to a specific problem of the engine as a component but to one or more problems related to it, such as spark plugs, injectors, etc. The problems related to this light can be more or less serious, depending on the color of its activation, but they should still be addressed in the workshop. The yellow engine malfunction indicator light also serves to symbolize that one of the anti-pollution components is not functioning correctly. Our advice is not to panic and to go to the workshop.

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.
