Volvo V50 - Video tutorial

Model: Volvo V50 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Operation: Guide to deactivate the immobilizer on the Volvo V50 - S40

In this guide we will see the instructions to deactivate the immobilizer system on the Volvo V50, but also on the S40 and C30. First of all, we open the bonnet of our car and disconnect the battery in advance, removing one of the terminals, in order to avoid short circuits. Then we go to disassemble the fuse box and the electronic board that we find inside; at this point we carry out the diagnosis and use specific software to deactivate the immobilizer system, deleting any errors; let's reassemble everything and check the ignition of the vehicle!

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.
