Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: License plate light
Operation: Replacing the license plate bulb on Volkswagen Polo

Today we will show you a very simple but unknown job for many, namely the replacement of the spotlight that illuminates the rear license plate. Unscrew the two screws holding the spotlight in place, one on each side, with a Phillips screwdriver, then remove it by levering it out in the side slot with a small flat screwdriver. Once this is done, just extract the small bulb by sliding it out of the side hooks, then insert the new one you purchased and equivalent to the original. Reinsert the light in its seat and tighten the side screws. As you can see it is a very simple maintenance.

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.
