Operation: Volvo V 50 service warning light reset

After carrying out regular maintenance by replacing the engine oil and relative filter, the SERVICE warning light on the instrument panel is reset manually, using the reset button for partial kilometers, without the aid of a diagnostic tool; then sit on the driver's seat and close all the doors, turn the ignition key to the first position and press the reset button for partial kilometers; keeping the button pressed, turn the key to the second position within two seconds and keep it pressed until the warning light starts flashing and then release it: at this point an acoustic signal will confirm the reset.

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.
