Volvo V50 - Video tutorial

Model: Volvo V50 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to remove the exterior mirror of a Volvo V50

Before we start, we will need to open the front door of our Volvo V50. So let's start by disengaging and removing the window lifter push-button panel, and then disconnect the relative electrical connector. Then we will have to disassemble the door panel, disengaging and removing the inserts and unscrewing the fixing screws and disengaging it from its housing. Once this is done, we will have reached the nuts that secure the mirror to the door. We then proceed by disconnecting the relative electrical connector, and then unscrewing and removing the fixing nuts. At this point, we will be able to remove the exterior rearview mirror, and the disassembly will be completed. To fit the new mirror, we will have to follow these instructions in reverse, and the replacement will be finished.

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.
