Video tutorial

In this video we can see how to repair the wires in the rear door connector of the Fiat Grande Punto. In fact, over the years, opening and closing the trunk often causes these wires to break, resulting in various anomalies with the lights, third brake light, rear wiper, and even the trunk interior light.

We need to check the electrical cables that pass through the rubber connector located on the left side of the rear door. Once this connector is opened, it shows us how the cables are very damaged, frayed, and cut. If we do not feel comfortable soldering wire by wire (which is actually an operation that requires skill and equipment), we can try using the kit with the code B00GJR87EY on Amazon, where we find the sleeve complete with all the wires that only need to be connected (an operation not suitable for everyone, but still simpler and does not require equipment), priced at 52.88 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers.

There is a third option: the electrician!

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
