What does the warning light with the padlock on the Fiat Panda mean?
Years 2003-2012

Answer

If you see a warning light with a padlock on your Fiat Panda, you have a problem with the recognition of the key code by the car ECU. One reason could be the key's dead battery and you can try replacing it. If this does not solve this problem, contact an auto electrician who will tell you exactly what the problem is.
