Hi all,
On my recently purchased 52 1.6 dynamic Stilo the rain and light sensor was sometimes failing. upon investigation the wires are all detached. Is this fixable or is a replacement available? Thanks for your time and help in advance.

Hi again,
just an update, but upon further investigation it now seems like I need the short connecting loom. the wire is attached with a small plug to the sensor as pictured. But where can I source one of these??
Thanks in advance for your help.
Shaun

Hmmmmm :chin:

There is an option with the proxi alignment in FES for auto lights. I wonder. I might look into this on my next scrappy run :)

The rain/dusk sensor has a 3 pin connector. The 2 pin connector in the interior light may be the microphone connector for CN+ equipped cars.

The column stalk switches are different for auto wipers and lights.
 
Hi all,
Just a quick update. I have been in contact with Fiat asking for a price on the connecting wire and it appears it should not be there. I have now simply binned the wire, connected direct (only reason I didnt do this before is because of fear that the connector alters the wiring) and job jobbed no more beeping error messages. Why oh why was it there in the first place. Another mystery but with a happy ending.
