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

Remove the gear lever gaiter, unscrew all related screws as shown in the video. Pull the plastic beneath the gaiter and remove it. Remove all the plastic related to the gear lever by unscrewing the two star screws and taking off the rest of the plastic that is simply clipped in place. Now the heating radiator is visible, on the driver's side. Remove the protective cover by unscrewing the three hex screws, and disconnect the connector. Unscrew the 4 Torx screws related to the upper frame of the instrument panel, and remove the 3 screws of the panel itself without taking it out. Unscrew another 3 screws related to the cover under the steering wheel. Once all the steering wheel plastics are removed, you can gently slide the radiator out, holding it up with your right hand while pulling it with your left.

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.
