Hi all! I'm new to these parts with an issue with my Fiat 500.
For a few weeks now I've had trouble starting it and having to rely on jump starts. I took it to my local fiat dealer to have the battery tested and they told me the battery was 'good' but needed an overnight recharge. I carried this out last weekend and then made a 60 mile round trip after charging was complete the next day. I haven't needed to use the car for a few days and today I've gone to start it and it will not start at all!
A few warning lights will flash up on the dash when you turn the key but soon go off and I can hear a ticking sound.
Can any one give any advice on whether this is solely a battery issue or whether it could be anything else?
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
