Hi
My Punto 2001 HLX has developed a central locking fault. Sometimes the 'door open' warning light illuminate when you're driving causing the interior light to come on (most disturbing at night!), then it corrects itself. I've discovered it can happen if I brake hard.
What is worse is it's not possible to lock the car when the damn thing is in this mood. I took it to my local Fiat dealer and they've never heard of it. I booked it in for them to check it out but within 10 minutes the fault had gone away. The (helpful) engineer said the central locking could have it's own fuse so it's possible to deactivate it so I can at least lock the car manually. But it's so erratic it hasn't seemed worth doing yet.
Until I have a permanent fault which they can investigate I'm going to have to live with it. But if anyone can throw any light on it (not my interior light) I would be most grateful.
Thanks in advance for any help given.
Rick
