2005 Fiat Punto 1.2 Questions & Answers
Hi, i need information on my Fiat Punto 1200. I
Sounds like you've got a whole bunch of problems all at once. The curious thing is that none of them seem to be inter-related - obviously, the linkage to your carb is broken, bent or otherwise compromised; the not-starting thing could be one or more of a gazillion things, but my bet is your battery is toast. Sounds like one for the shop. Sorry. . .
What does yellow sun symbol on dashboard indicate?
Headlights failure.
If the yellow symbol appear as soon as you turn on the dashboard, stop's light bulbs may be the problem.
If the yellow symbol appear when you switch-on lights, the problem may comes from the position's light bulbs.
Ensure that all of the light bulbs are fully working.
Steering wheel fault light comes on
Hi
there is a common fault with the PUNTO steering electric motor connector,
I suggest that you have a look at the connector at the back of the steering motor, probably is shorting a bit and cause a fault.
Good luck
New starter fitted but still fails to start unless with push
A garage told you that it was the starter motor which was replaced.. and then suggested the ignition switch? That's not much of a garage..
Those symptoms are indicative of a solenoid/relay/switch fault. But how do you find out which? Though to be honest, ignition switch (key) failures are actually quite rare.
The truth is you can spend a lot of time and money replacing parts and finding that nothing cures the problem. You've already paid for a new starter which didn't cure the problem..
Seriously - give an auto electrician a call. Or a mobile mechanic. Let them identify the fault (and they usually do..). You'll get a lot of 'could be' advice which may cost you a lot in replacement parts and not fix things. Give an auto electrician or mobile mechanic a call.
Steering locks in motion?
How many miles are on this vehicle? Has the problem got worse over time? Doe it happen only in one direction at approximately the same place? It sounds like a rack and pinion problem. If any of the above are your problem, draining a pint of your power steering fluid and adding some fluid with PTFE will probably help if not fix the problem.

Fiat punto 2005 spark plug change
Hi Gerard, on a 1.28v Punto the plugs are on the back of the cylinder head tucked between the 4 inlet manifolds. The plug closest to the timing belt end (just next to the oil dipstick) is easy to find, the others are a bit obscured by the plastic housing that sheaths the injector wiring. Be careful pulling off the suppressor caps, they hang on quite tight so best use long nose pliers and NOT pull on the HT lead. Hope that helps. Andy
