Replacing the mirror cap on a Fiat Grande Punto is a fairly simple job that does not require professional help or special tools. First, you need to remove the mirror, which is clipped in place.

To release it, adjust the mirror towards the inside to create space for your fingers on the outer edge. Then, being careful not to drop it, use your fingers to lever it out in the created space to unclip it. Once the mirror is unclipped, you will have access to the back of the cap where the clips that hold it to the mirror body are visible.

These can be easily unclipped, allowing the cap to be removed by pulling it outward. After removing the cap, you can proceed to replace it with a new one, which can be clipped back into place using the previously unclipped clips.

Finally, remount the mirror by clipping it back in, starting from the inside towards the outside.

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.
