How to Remove and Replace the Cabin Heater Radiator in a Fiat Panda

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Heater core

This video teaches you how to remove and replace the cabin heater radiator in a Fiat Panda. First, remove the gear lever gaiter, unscrew all the cross and Torx screws with the appropriate screwdriver, and pull out the plastic cover. Next, remove the cover that surrounds the gear linkage cables, again unscrewing the screws that hold it in place. At this point, on the driver's side, you will find the heater radiator protected by a cover that needs to be removed after unscrewing the screws (don’t forget to disconnect the connector). Also, remove the cover of the instrument cluster and the plastic protection under the steering wheel, and only now can you extract the cabin heater radiator. To replace this part, follow the same disassembly procedure in reverse. Good luck!
