500 Newbie with a broken handle

[HollyBlue500]

Hi!

I'm off too find a guide to fix my drivers door handle on my 500 after it just decided to unattach itself from the car...I'm reliably (??) informed that this should be pretty easy to fix myself. It's not under warranty anymore and I leave on a road trip on Friday, so better to get it done now than have if fall of all together when on the other side of the UK!

Feeling like maybe I should have been issued with a 'common faults' inventory when I bought her!

Anyway, this is me, hello...

Hi Holly, and welcome to FF,

here is a section from the GUIDES;https://www.fiatforum.com/500-guides/316198-broken-door-handle-articulator-hinge-repair.html

Thank you!

I've had a look at the guide that I thought would help, but appears that it might be a different part of the handle that has broken. Think this may well be a garage job
