Fiat Panda - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Panda MK 2, 169 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Location of the inertia switch in the Fiat Panda.

If, following a violent impact, the Fiat Panda cannot restart with all probability, it is due to the intervention of the inertia switch blocking the flow of fuel to the engine. The inertia switch is a safety device that interrupts the flow of gasoline in the event of an accident, greatly reducing the risk of fire. To confirm its intervention, the message "fps on" will appear on the dashboard display. Once it has been verified that the vehicle can resume driving safely, we must unlock it. The switch is located under the driver's seat, on the side of the door, near the steering wheel. Press it and verify that the message disappears from the dashboard.
