How to Remove the Front Seat Headrest of a Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011

Before you can start, sit in the left rear seat of your Fiat Punto second series. Begin by rotating the two hooks at the base of the headrest anti-clockwise, using a pair of pliers. Once you have rotated the two lower hooks, you will have successfully freed the headrest. At this point, simply pull the headrest out of the seat. By doing this, you will have completed the removal, and you will be free to fit a new headrest for the Fiat Punto or have the removed headrest repaired.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. 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.
