I recently fitted a Towbar to my 07 Bravo that I bought from Ebay. Phoned to get the Electrics fitted by a Proffesional as I didn't want to blow the car up.........
He asked me ....'Does the car have a CANBUS system ??'
I said that I wasn't sure, but went onto the Brink/Thule Website to have a looksee.....
Brink/Thule Website said ...... 'Canbus........No' in the techie blurb for the 07 Bravo.
Took my Car into the Auto Electrics place ...showed him the webpage that I had downloaded.....Fine.. no Probs says the Auto Spark.
Later that day, Phonecall from Spark........'Doesn't work....must be CANBUS !!' :bang:
need a Relay. Fiat do a kit for £140 :eek::eek::eek: (Good old Fiat !!)

Got one from a place in Peterborough for £40.

Two days and £150 lighter :cry:....... All working now.(y)

Does anyone know if ALL the Bravo's are CANBUS or is it just the early ones ??

They do have a canbus system. I was going to get an alarm fitted on my car and the place said that it needs a special module otherwise they wont be able to wire it up.

be careful when buying electrical mods.
