Hi guys,
New to this forum and owning a fiat and need some advise.
I recently made a hasty purchase from EBay without reading the description fully......stupid I know but it was cheap! The car is a 2004 Punto, 1.2 active.
Basically the car won't start, code light flashes when engine turned over, the car only has one key, I have seen a couple of options on eBay for changing the ECUs and locks or sending away the immobiliser to have it recoded and 2 new keys supplied. The first option the seller said that changing the ECUs may cause the dash to fault?
Today I removed the immobiliser unit which I think is also the body computer this has been off before a its covered in dirty finger prints which worries me, also I looked at the engine ECU and this has also been off.
So I don't know wether it's best to buy the full set of parts from eBay and replace them all.
Any advise would be very appreciated
Cheers
