How to Reset the Service Message on the Fiat Panda 1.2 Petrol

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Warning light – error code

To reset the error messages on the Panda, first switch off the ignition. Once the ignition is off, move to the passenger side and slide the passenger seat back as far as possible to reach the button located underneath it. Once you find the button, which is circular with a metal ring around it, press it for one or two seconds. Finally, return to the driver's side and turn on the ignition without starting the engine. If everything has gone as expected, the error message will no longer be present on the Panda's display, and you can start the engine without any issues.
