Where is the idle fuel control valve on a fiat strada 1.6
I believe it has another name Idle Air Control. Most of the time it builds up carbon on the plunger of the IAC or fuel control valve. If the valve is having idle problems then tat's the problem.The valve is located on the side of the throttle body good luck Mike L. l

FIAT 500 2010 Airbag warning up on dash.No fault codes but RED airbag lamp inoperative on dash
no country told at all. why skip the most important fact?????????
learn that scan tools must match your country and car
to read SRS bags. a special scan tool is needed to do that.
so now you have no idea what is wrong and its trying so hard to tell you but you are using the wrong tools.
so go to a real shop, and get the SRS scanned.
inoperative? means just the lamp burned out/ or what
not told what's wrong.clearly.
get the car serviced in a real shop if worried, most owners 99;.999 % never do air bags DIY at home, ok>? lots of danger playing with them.
USA answers only me, okay?

Why fuse goes out when flat towing Fiat 500 on Chateau 25V
25v is model # of motor RV coach. not volts.well the fuse is wrong sizeor there is a short in the end to end of the feed linenot told what fuse blew.top cause wired wrong at hitchcars cam have upto 12 park lamps but not Fiat500, lessparks (tails)blinkers.or reverse or brake feed.the fuse is marked as to its use.most wise makers of hitch kitshave a buffer box for the towed (trailer car)that has its own fuses, so fuses in the RV never blow.buy this kit and install it. if not there already.or get an RV center in the loop.
2009 Fiat 500. Yellow triangle on dash 'check running lights', but both running lights are working?
This appears to be a well known issue. I found this
Solved maybe
.
I had the same issue when i changed one of the Daylight Running Lights in the front and one of my rear brake lamps.
I ended up changed both brake lamps since its a two pack, the front lights all looked well.
The rear, one was off even if i changed both.
I was puzzled but then tried to turn off my DRL from the menu section on the front panel which didn't work.
Opened the brake lamps and checked them again and they all worked.
I reset my error codes (check your manufacturer book) mine was 5 pumps with engine off then key out and then engine on.
The "check running lights" code disappeared as well. Make sure to check all your lights are on(front back.
Hope that works for one of you at least!
and also
I has the exact same issue. DRL going out when headlamps turned on. I found the problem. It's a simple fix.
It was a bad connection between the bulb and the bulb holder. I noticed wiggling the bulb made it come on and off.
The fix is to bend the exposed wires on the bulb so that they stand proud rather than squashed flat against the bulb.
I did it by gently prizing them away from the bulb and then I put a small screw driver underneath it and pressed the wire back down again. You could use a cocktail stick or march stick or similar.
This makes the contact between the bulb and the holder tighter. Job done.
Lots more here.
