Replace the faulty ignition coil on a Fiat Punto. Pull the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front bonnet, securing it. Unscrew the securing bolts of the coil with a suitable socket wrench (if present), grasp it with your hands and twist it to remove it from the cylinder head.

Disconnect the power connector of the coil. Connect the wire of the new coil and attach it to the spark plug.

Refit the plastic cover panel that was removed earlier. Start the vehicle.

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.
