Fiat Punto - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Punto 188, MK 2 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Airbags
Operation: Correction of the airbag isolation switch

The following video explains the airbag isolation switch fix. The operation consists of installing a harness that completely replaces the one between the airbag switch and the airbag control unit. In theory, the same result could be achieved by creating a ground for the passage of the existing frame and a ring connector to the ground. The first step is to disconnect the battery and it is not strictly necessary to disassemble the frame or glove box. The correction to be made can be carried out within the time allowed for the diagnostics. The following video also explains what needs to be done with the Fiat exploration software.
