Seem to have load of electrical problems with the families Punto's at the moment.
My niece has a 53 Punto which has been flattening the battery recently, and throwing up spurious warning lamps on the dash. Also she swears that she has seen the courtesy light and sidelights on when they shouldn't have. She put it into her local garage, who got a auto electrician to have a look...his diagnosis was that the body electrics computer was faulty and a new one is required and to be programmed. Which would cost within the region of £600.
I've never heard of this...but I belong to the analogue world!
Does anyone know about this type fault, is it plausible, and is there a cheaper fix? as this could be the death of a perfectly good running car.
