I have a 2007 Fiat Punto Grande. A warning message came up 'Check running lights'. All the bulbs were changed, but the warning light is still showing. I don't know what else we need to do.
I didn't realise that there were different wattage for the bulbs. How do I know what wattage I need? PleaseHi
Got the correct wattage bulbs in each lamp (that is the favourite). Led bulbs cause this too of course
Do you have access to the manual?I didn't realise that there were different wattage for the bulbs. How do I know what wattage I need? Please
only when I turn the lights onDoes it come on with:
The ignition
With the sidelights switched on
When Braking
Or a combination of those.?
The running light bulbs (both) and rear brake light bulbWhich bulbs did you change?
OkThe running light bulbs (both) and rear brake light bulb
I will check those issues. Thank you very much for your help. We have had the car a long time from new, but it is still in good condition and runs ok.Ok
Brake lights will only sense when brake applied
Running.. You mean the small 'push-in' front sidelight bulbs? (same as numberplate bulbs)
If you've swapped 'like for like'.
Same wattage. (that is what the system monitors).
Favourite with a 199 punto will be a poor connection at the rear light cluster..
Unplug the Cluster from the loom.. Look at the 4 pins.. Probably corroded
A nail file is good for cleaning the surface
Also check the plug.. Are the 4 a silvery constacts OK.. Or 1 Opened up?
You can gently reshape it with a ting probe.. Or screwdriver.
I owned 4 of these cars.. . Good cars... But 15 years takes a toll
No problemI will check those issues. Thank you very much for your help. We have had the car a long time from new, but it is still in good condition and runs ok.
