Volkswagen Vento - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Vento MK 1, A3 - Years 1991-1998
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Check lock switch operation

If the interior lights remain on when the vehicle is locked with the remote control key (or directly with the mechanical key), it is likely that some locks are not working correctly. Practically, inside the lock there is a microswitch which signals the status of the lock to the comfort module: the failure of this microswitch is a fairly recurring defect on these cars but fortunately it can be easily repaired; in fact, it is not necessary to replace the entire lock but it is sufficient to disassemble it and replace the microswitch inside, which can be found in any electronics store.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
