Q:!When you poke your screwdriver through the hole and into the mechanism , isn’t there a cover to the locking mechanism ??

Absolute lad. Thanks for making this, saved me so much time and money

Thanks so much, someone had hit our car and it made the hood opening mechanism stop working. We are very thankful as now we were able to open the hood without taking the front pieces off. After trying many KZbin videos this was the only one that worked.

I have a third party lock and I still can’t get in. The barrel looks to be just moving and not actually turning the lock…. And I’m out of coolant as it’s been leaking. To garage I go 😢

Thanks for this, really helpful video! Does it have to be a cross head or since you are just pushing it can be anything?

Thanks from La Rochelle, France, that was very helpful!

Last friction plate wrong place

Where did you get the new catch from?

Absolute legend. Thanks for the quick to the point video 💪🏼

You're doing a public service man! My st2 latch is numb, only opens half way mostly. I'm gonna keep a 500mm driver in the car now until I get it replaced 👊.

I've had this fail on me several times, replacing each time with a cheap Ebay Chinese piece of cr*p. They're useless breaking again after months. Go to a breaker and get a genuine Ford one. On a positive note, I believe the original engineer that designed this monstrosity was taken out & shot - every cloud, eh? 🤣

Wasn't last Saturday?

Ive tried this but the barell still spins without catching. Any idea?

I wish I came across this before trying the other method

Thank you sooo much. You save a major hassle for me. Just to be clear, yoi must use cross/pointing head screwdriver like in the video. Thx again!

Honestly I don’t understand why ford can’t just make cars like normal people. Other cars has a latch that you’ll pull in the car this is just horrible.

Push down on bonnet, turn key, your welcome 🤗

You're brilliant. The only one who knows what to do. All others on KZbin don't know how locks work and damage everything on a complicated way. Saved my live. Needed to refill oil urgently. Thank you so much👍👍👍

Is this zetec madel,,,

Nice one chum:)) 👍

Hi mate , I have just replaced clutch in mine er6n 2013 exactly as yours , put everything together and had to adjust clutch cable as it was too loose , had to go max by the clutch lever and also by the engine other wise would able to put into gears any idea why there’s so much gap ? Thanks

Great idea thank you

That's brilliant, thank you 👍

Thanks

The best man 👍👍👍

The best man 👍👍👍

I have the same problem with my Ford Mondeo 2006? Do you think it is the same with the Ford Mondeo 2006

Gem! Well done mate👍

Could you tell me roughly how much the kit is to replace. Thanks

fantastic what a great video perfect sir thank you for your time saved me messing

Mate, thanks for this, all others telling us to smash things off with a hammer, then you come along - legend.

Man, you are my Hero.

I must replcae the kit on my 650 Versys. Pretty much the same setup as your ER6. Im on 100000km now so I think its about time. I havent replaced a clutch kit since I was in college so thanks for the video.

Are you sure was not Marc Marquez behind you 😅😅😅

What were those aluminum spacers for? And did you end up using the washers?

👏🏼👏🏼

Great rundown mate, could you please let me know the torque settings as I'm struggling to get details online without buying a manual. Cheers mate from Australia

nice, can you post part numbers for friction/steel plates?

Replaced the clutch plates and springs on a versys 650 '10 (EBC) , no matter what I do- it's hard to shift gears, no neutral after first gear engagement. The freeplay is ok on the lever and near the clutch plate..... EBC springs are 2mm bigger than genuine ones... could this be the cause??

Cuantos km tenías la moto

So...no torque settings for clutch bolts? Did you drain the engine oil then refill? I would have thought that new clutch into old oil wasn't a great idea (filings and clutch plate debris etc). You didn't explain about clutch adjustment or if you intended to replace the cable at the same time. I only ask because these are all things I ensure I do when I replace a clutch. Good video..I hope you didn't mind my comments.

It should be noted, make sure you soak the new friction plates in oil for a MINIMUN of 12 hours. Preferably 24-28 hours. Before installing them on the bike.

Hey dude thanks for running me through my cbt the other day.. theory booked Tuesday 👌

Really good views mate get more videos up!

Nice vid. I’ve done clutches before but it’s good to see it before you start.

Top job on the video buddy, can I just ask how much oil did you loose before I attempt this and flood the patio 🤣 thanks for your time fella 👍🏻

how many friction plates does the er6 have? because all friction plate kits have 7 but when i look at the manual diagram it shows much less,could you enlighten me pls? also how many steel plates?

jajajjaajaj amigo no hace falta hacer lo de los tornillos , son todos iguales . De todas maneras tienes un like ,gracias por el video

This video was exactly what I needed since I went on to replace my clutch cable but being difficult to remove it took the clutch release arm away with it and now I don't know how to reseat it properly since when I pull the clutch lever with the new cable installed nothing happens.Could you please enlighten me on how to reseat the release arm? Edit:Fixed,it was just a case of wrong part number as my clutch cable was for the 2007-2014 Versys and as a result larger,having no tension.The clutch release arm was seated properly but it didn't even budge when I thought I could just rotate it by hand.Clutch works like new now!

Thanks for sharing mate!
