Volkswagen Tiguan - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan MK 1, 5N - Years 2007-2016
Part: Key
Operation: Replacing the remote control battery in the Volkswagen Tiguan

In this video we will see how to replace the exhausted battery of the remote control of the first series of the medium Volkswagen SUV, or the Tiguan. This guide applies to cars equipped with a normal key and not a keyless one. The operation turns out to be very simple, since we remove the door of the remote control, with the help of a screwdriver, and immediately we find the battery (a 3V CR 2025). We replace it with a new one and then proceed by reassembling the remote control body, making sure to hook the cover well. Now we can go and try it out and see if it works properly.

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.
