This tutorial shows how to change the battery of a second-generation Fiat Punto, produced from 1999 to 2011. First, switch off the vehicle and open the bonnet. The battery is located on the right side of the engine bay. To replace it, remove the securing bracket by undoing its two screws with a 10 mm socket spanner.

Next, pull the tab on the negative terminal (black) and disconnect it from the battery. Then, using a 10 mm spanner, undo the nut on the positive terminal (red) and disconnect it as well.

Once done, you can extract the battery and replace it by reversing the procedure.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
