Hi Frank here scratching his head
Im at a total loss, if anyone can help please
My daughter owns a 1.4 8V Punto Grande
We have had problems since we bought it last year.
The car at first would either start or was totally dead. It would blow bulbs like they were out of fashion. so i suspected over charging. But this is not the case
when we got it running it was charging nicely with everything turned on.
So got a battery and still the same. So i put a jump lead off the battery to the block. Instant start so replaced the earth from batt to chassis to gearbox. found to be the fault. things were good for a week and it now gives a sudden power fail, loss of everything dash, H lights IGN But it returns as fast as it cut out but with a central locking light showing on the dash. When you re start the car for the next journey the light is off :bang: So i plugged it in to my scanner and there is no power at the OBD2 socket and because of this it just says unable to read. Im worried this will result in an accident. Please can anyone help. We also serviced the car. still does it
