The disassembly and replacement of the engine control unit does not require the use of special tools; however, caution must be taken not to damage it during disassembly; let's see how to remove it on the Volkswagen Jetta. First, open the hood of the car and begin to remove the partition located on the upper part of the engine compartment by unscrewing the fastening screws; we will find the engine control unit at the back, where we will unscrew the screws and disconnect the various wiring to remove it, as shown in the video.

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.
