Have just picked up 2007 punto and found a problem, if you have the headlights on and then turn on the indicators the headlights go out until the indicators are turned off, indicators without h/lights on are intermittent, where do I start please.?
 
Weird light behaviour is often caused by an earth problem. The plugs at the rear light clusters are well known, the black wire corrodes and overheats in the plug.
Check all the earth wires for the lights front and back.
 
Welcome

As you’re talking about a 2007 model and your profile suggests you’re in the Uk, I’d probably start in the Grande Punto section as your car is a totally different car to the cars covered in this section.
 
I think I have found the problem, the indicator stalk seems too loose and if you twist it the faults come to life, unfortunately both the indicator and the washer stalks are fitted into one assembly and not sold separately, and the dealer is quoting around £240 to supply.! guess i'll be checking breakers yards in the new year.!
Thank you all for your replies. Happy New Year.!!!!
