The car windscreen does not wear out over time like other components, and this operation should only be performed if the glass has cracks or chips that cannot be repaired with resin. First, gather the necessary materials to replace the old windscreen.

You will need a new windscreen suitable for your Fiat Punto, a sealant gun, suction cups, a cloth, gloves, a star key, a screwdriver, a new seal, a utility knife, and a scraper. The first step is to remove the wiper blades and then the old seal using a scraper and utility knife; remove the seal and scrape off any adhesive residue.

Now, extract the old windscreen using the suction cups, then clean the glass thoroughly to ensure the suction cups adhere well, and have a second person assist you in removing the glass. Once the old windscreen is removed, apply the sealant; wear gloves, and with the help of a second person and the suction cups, position the glass and place the new seal, adhering it to the new windscreen and let it dry for a few hours.

Now take a bucket of water and pour it over the windscreen to check for any leaks in the seal.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on a Kia Rio?

The tyre pressure warning light displayed on the instrument cluster of the Kia Rio can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the recommended pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker affixed to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
