1 Genera! information and precautions

A


Warning: fie/Ore carrying out any work on the electrical system, read through the precautions given in Safety first! at the beginning of this manual, and in Chapter 8. The electrical system is of 12-volt negative earth type. Power for the lights and all electrical accessories is supplied by a lead/acid type battery, which is charged by the alternator. This Chapter covers repair and service procedures for the various electrical components not associated with the engine. Information on the battery, alternator and starter motor can be found in Chapter 5. It should be noted that, prior to working on any component In the electrical system, the
battery negative terminal should first be disconnected, to prevent the possibility of electrical short-circuits and/or fires. Caution: Before proceeding, refer to Disconnecting the battery In the Reference Section of this manual for further information.
2 Electrical fault finding-general information
Note: Refer to the precautions given In Safety first! and in Section 1 of this Chapter before starting work. The following tests relate to testing ot the main electrical circuits, and should not be used to test delicate electronic circuits (such as antHock braking systems), particularly where an electronic con fro/ module is used.
General 1 A typical electrical circuit consists of an electrical component, any switches, relays, motors, fuses, fusible links or circuit breakers related to that component, and the wiring and connectors which link the component to both the battery and the chassis. To help to pinpoint a problem in an electrical circuit, wiring diagrams are Included at the end of this manual. 2 Before attempting to diagnose an electrical fault, first study the appropriate wiring diagram, to obtain a more complete understanding of the components included In the particular circuit concerned. The possible sources of a fault can be narrowed down by noting whether other components related to the circuit are operating properly. If several components or circuits fait at one time, the problem Is likely to be related to a shared fuse or earth connection.

Front direction indicator side repeater light 7 The procedure is described as pari of the bulb renewal procedure In Section 4.
Front foglight 8 Remove the hatch from the wheel arch liner and unplug Ihe wiring Irom the rear of the foglamp unit. 9 The front foglamps are secured to tho valence by three screws • one directly above the light unit, accessed from the front and two accessed Irom below the valence. Once these ere removed, the foglamp can be removed via the hatch in the wheel arch liner. 10 Refitting is a reversal of removal. On complellon, it Is advisable to check the foglight beam alignment. If necessary, the beam may be altered using the adjustment screw (see Illustration)

8 Headlight beam alignment -general information
Accurate adjustment ot the headlight beam is only possible using optical beam-setting equipment, and this work should therefore be carried out by a Fiat dealer or suitably-equipped workshop. Incorrectly adjusted headlamps can dazzle other drivers and cause accidents. Certain models are equipped with a headlight aim adjustment switch, located on the facia, which allows the aim of tho headlights lo be adjusted to compensate lor tho varying loads carried in the vehicle. The switch should be positioned according to Ihe
