Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Steering wheel

Removing the steering wheel from a Fiat Panda? This operation is not too complex, let's see how to do it. Disconnect the battery terminals in the engine bay; insert the removal keys into the slots at the back of the steering wheel and release the clips until the steering wheel is free. Once the airbag is disconnected, disconnect the power connectors for it and remove it from the steering wheel. Unscrew the central nut and remove the steering wheel from the column. Refit the steering wheel onto the steering column and tighten the nut, then reconnect the airbag power connector and the steering wheel. Test the operation of the steering wheel and the horn.

Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
