My fiancee has a 1.2 sport active Grande Punto and out of the blue on Friday it wont start. She has tried to jump start it along with rolling start but both haven't worked. Everything else works electrically, from the lights to the radio, but the engine wont start and no noise(grinding or ticking) is heard. She got a mechanic to look at it and he was able to pretty much hot wire it, bypassing the ignition. This gets me thinking its something wrong electrically here rather than mechanically with the engine.
The key works up to putting power to the radio etc. but fails to start the car. Looking for idea's of faults and if anyone has had similar.
I've seen alot posted about starter motor but the car starts so can rule that out.
