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 RU-vid 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 😢
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? 🤣
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.
You're brilliant. The only one who knows what to do. All others on RU-vid 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👍👍👍
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
Hi they should half and half Check that you have routed the cable the right way and in all cable stops And that your cable maybe too worn out and will a new one that’s not stretched
@@therideout1424 does the pin in the middle should be loosed that you can pull out with the fingers ? The pin inside the basket which engaging the clutch once pressing lever clutch
Lifesaver! Thanks man, mine decided not to open this morning what an absolute joke of a design typical ford plastic shite, one bit of my st that I have always hated!
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.
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
Hi thanks for watching hope you like and subscribe There are 7 Friction Plates 6 Steel Plates If your the the uk you can buy the complete kit from WEMOTO.COM I USE THEM FOR ALL MY PARTS
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??
Hi yer it maybe the problem but also the year of the bike as to get bit for mine I order 07 parts even though my bike is 09 I found it out when parts did not fit
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.
Thank you Not a lot at all as I had the bike lent over to the left on a make shift stand and I had a one litre bottle oil just in case if you need more help let me know
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?
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!
Hi thanks for watching hope it helped you So install the cover - pull the clutch arm back (anti clockwise), then rotate it forwards so that it engages behind the end of the pull-rod as the cover is pressed into position You will need to loosen the cover agin or it may not go in
