Volkswagen Passat - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Passat 3BG, B5 - Years 1996-2005
Part: Pump
Operation: Volkswagen Passat washer pump disassembly

In this video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the windshield washer pump of a second series Volkswagen Passat. First of all, let's remove the front mudguard from the left side, unscrewing the fixing screws; then we access the washer fluid pump. At this point we are going to remove all the liquid inside the tank and take out the pump together with the wiring: we disconnect the hose and its electrical connector to remove it and replace it with the new one, as shown in the video. We just have to reassemble everything, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
