What to do if the engine lock indicator light appears on the dashboard of a Fiat car

Model: Fiat Fiat Various
Part: Warning light – error code

In this video we see what to do if a Fiat car's dashboard shows a warning light depicting a padlock and an engine. This usually happens after the key has fallen or has been hit hard. The same problem can also occur with Alfa Romeo, Opel, Renault, Peugeot, and Citroen cars. We need to work on the remote control, opening the screw at the front. We remove the battery and open the device's body by levering with a screwdriver. We take the circuit board and check it; there will definitely be a break in the circuit. If we also have a slight knowledge of electronics, we will be able to repair it with a small soldering. We put the board back in place and close the body, after putting the battery back in place and recharging the key's spring. Now let's try to start the car. It works!
