Part: Headlight
Operation: Headlight bulb replacement on Volkswagen Polo

Before working, remove the ignition key from its seat and apply the parking brake. Pull the hood opening lever inside the passenger compartment and open the same, placing the appropriate support rod. To access the bulbs, the headlight block must be removed: to do this, pry the plastic tab of the headlight power socket with a small flat screwdriver. Unscrew the two fixing screws of the light with a torx t20. At this point, slide the whole lighthouse outwards and remove it. At this point you just need to lift the two metal latches and replace the burnt out bulb.

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.
