Hello all, I'm new to this forum, so please be gentle! I've had my '58 Punto 1.4 Active for just over a year (many years ago I bought a N reg Mk1 brand new but I like this one better!)
Anyway, a couple of months ago, the buttons on the steering wheel that control the radio etc stopped working. Not too much of a problem. Then a few weeks later the airbag warning light started coming on. Last week, the horn stopped working.
I've read through the threads on the forum and I can see a few other similar posts, but nothing completely explaining the problem. There's mention of the clockspring but I don't know what that is - I'm guessing some sort of slip ring inside the wheel? If that's the likely cause, is it something I can fix myself? The MoT is due soon so I need to get it fixed.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
