Hello everyone,
i am new to the site and generally in the Bravo community.
I am having an issue over the last month with my 150 tjet 14 bravo 2008.
while driving one light/warning on the dashboard appears most of the times " ESP hillholder unavailable", then a second one about ASR then the handbrake sign and then if i keep driving the steering wheel sign and that's when the steering wheel gets extremely heavy.
so i pull over and turn the car off. when i try to restart i get a sign on the dashboard (besides all the previous) with a car and a lock and the car won't start. it makes the noise like is starting but it does not.
after some minutes or hours when i try again it starts normally.
i took the car to several not fiat garages with diagnostics. they removed the codes and they told me that most of them had to do with the can bus of the car. i also took it to fiat where they also run diagnostics and found nothing obvious to fix so the checked the whole canbus wiring and told me that they found a switch under the battery with loose pins so they fixed it.
for 2 weeks the car was fine. 2 days ago it did the same thing so i took it back again to FIAT. now they are saying that it might has something to do with the immobilizer.
i apologise if i tired you with this "essay" above but i m really frustrated about it and i would be grateful to whoever has some past same experience in order to give me some advise.
cheers
