I am not sure about the rear parking help, but the rear window protection could be that you need to set up the microswitch parameters on your rear electric windows. If you select the windows down and hold the switch for about 5 seconds, then select up and hold it for about the same time, it tells the window controller the stop positions for your windows. This should clear the message. Paul D

Posts: 7 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: warning triangle light on my croma That is a Top Tip about the Windows. I was first shown it by Neil at NJS in Pershore and I have had to use it myself once already. Is this a common problem with the Croma?

Posts: 149 Thanks: 8 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: warning triangle light on my croma it's not a problem body computer stores info on max and min position of the windows for safety reasons, if power to BC is disconnected than info is lost and need to be reprogramed try to leave your window open and disconnect batery for 30min or so - you'll get an error message after reconnecting - normal thing btw it's not only on croma like this, stilo aswell and some other newer fiats with window security

Posts: 4,411 Thanks: 322 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: warning triangle light on my croma Sorry but got here a little late. The Croma window cycling is mentioned in the owners manual. Similarly, I experience both this window warning AND indicator failures after disconnecting the battery and removing the rear light clusters and bumper to fit my tow bar. On putting the rear light clusters back I had "indicator failures" registered on the dash. Foxed me for a while as everything was back and connected properly. I eventualy found out that is took a good 10 to 20 seconds of both left and right indicator operation for the system/body computer to flush the missing/broken light and register the correct operation of the units. Had me going/panicing for a while :-) All this modern vehicle electronics whilst excellent under normal operating conditions prove themselves to be a total nighmare in all other conditions.

Posts: 263 Thanks: 2 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: warning triangle light on my croma the warning message for parking help is back, i've checked the fuses again and they are fine. the wires look good behind the bumper and the earthing point in the boot looks like new would a faulty sensor cause this message and my parking sensors to stop working.

Posts: 5 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: warning triangle light on my croma We had a similar problem after fitting a tow bar. Warning triangle appeared with "Parking assistance unavailable" or words to that effect. Dealership replaced 2 sensors and it's been fine since. M.V.W.
