Video tutorial

This video shows how to remedy a common issue with the electric window mechanism of the Fiat Punto MK2. The presenter has verified that all contacts on the electronic board are functioning, and the connectors coming from inside the vehicle have the correct voltage.

However, when connecting the plugs to the electronic board, he notices a voltage drop of over one volt.

What could be the problem? It is likely a contact that is no longer functioning properly. Therefore, using a small screwdriver, try to move the metal tabs inside the negative connector to increase their resistance and perform a test before reassembling everything.

Operation successful.
