Posts: 20 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | Pulling my Hair out Part 2 Hi All Its been a while but thanks to all that replied to my previous thread re the ongoing visits to my dealership.... Still got the air bag warning flashing on and off, now approaching my 15th return visit in 4-ish months...Dealer says theyve changed everything but the wiring loom ?? sound like complete Bo**ox to me (sorry ladies) but their attempting to get hold of a loom, trouble is "so they say" cos my little baby's got curtain airbags sky roof and loads of other sh*te (sorry again) their having problems locating the correct loom.......Yeah right.. Sorry but i dont believe a word they tell me these days.. Anyway if and when they do locate a loom and eventually fit it i'll let you all know if it sorts out the problem.. Jo ![]()

Ask your dealer to get the DET (dealer expert technician)to organise a visit from Fiats travelling Technician,if you live around the south the guys name is Dave and he is the Biz there is nobody in the country like him or as knowledgeable as him, Fiat pay homidge to him. If he cant fix it then you`ve got Fiat against the rails.
