Hello, I am new to the forum, and I have bought a second hand Punto evo 1.4 GP, on a 60 plate.

I love the car, but I am having problems with the USB port, there seems be no power. I have tried two USB sticks, one has a power light / activity light on it, it never lights up. On the stereo, it says "no source available".

I know that by disconnecting the battery that this may reset the Blue&me and the USB port and fix the problem. However,I am worried that this may reset the radio, I have no radio code!!

I note on the alfaforum, that a poster posted the following;

" I disconnected the battery for 10 seconds. Problem solved! No other things had any issue. Date/Time ok. Windows ok, Radio ok. Quicker than waiting over two weeks for the dealer to look at it..."

Has anybody tried this, without having the radio resetting its self, was the radio ok, no need to put a code in?

Thanks guys
 
Sorry, I post on the Alfaforum this way, sometimes it can be model specific forum that gets me the best results!!
 
Hello,

If you post just in the model category of your car it is fine, Punto 2012 topics are also shown in Punto Evo for exemple.

For Blue & Me and the radio, correct if I am wrong, you dont need a code. If the radio remain in the same car, you dont need anything to do.
If you put the radio in another car, you need to go to your dealer.

For your sticks, I assume they work great on your computer ?
