Look in the fusediagram in the handbook IIRC fuse 16 is for the fuelsystem. Won't ever start without it.

Abarth Punto Evo / ECU stolen
« Last post by pacosnest on April 11, 2024, 12:06:41 pm »Hi
I recently bought a vandalised Punto Abarth 2011. They stole the ECU weirdly!
One guy who knew all about them told me i needed to buy an ECU with body module control box, barrel, key etc.
Someone else told me i can get a virginised ECU off ebay and it will work.
Anyone know if buying a virginised ECU will work? if so do you know who offers this service so i can buy one and send it to them?
Any help would be appreciated
thanks

Abarth 500 / Temporary security fix
« Last post by Person on April 10, 2024, 11:27:23 pm »Hi all
I'm having a bit of an issue my car security. I have a 2022 595c. It has an alarm fitted that has just decided to intermittently start activating (annoying the neighbours). I have been in contact with the place that fitted it and they are going to take a look at it and make some adjustments. Problem is, they can't fit me in until a couple of weeks time. Also I'm going away over the weekend for a couple of days and don't want it to sound/annoy while I'm gone.
So was thinking can I just central lock the car with the key in the door lock and this will arm the immobiliser, or do I need to use the key fob (which will arm the annoying alarm)?
Also is there a fuse I could pull as a temporary measure to stop the car from starting/being driven off?
I also have manual security (steering wheel lock etc).
Many thanks in advance for any feedback.

They think delivery will be late June early July which seems a long time but I guess they hold produced cars at the factory until the can make up a full load or suchlike. Then they have to reach the UK and and deliver to the dealer.
