Hi mate I'm a mechanic Johndawkesandsonsmobilemechanics You can get a recon engine for maybe £450

What the part number please ?

Good to find your post as we have the same problem on 10 plate. I had already changed the earth strap but it did not solve our problem. We still have a car which randomly decides not to start. Period of standing still makes no difference. We generally leave the car for 30 mins and it will start. Anyone with any suggestions

Very common and stop the alternator charging the battery a lot of people change the alternator and it is just the cable

very good video and very nice information, thank u.

Thank you ssooooo much for this video. My husband and I have been looking for a solution for 2 weeks now. We even changed the starter and some fuses without success. Your video saved us to get the car towed to the garage (who aren't used to repair Fiat and would have charged an arm and a leg). What a small piece that has a huge impact on the whole mechanic.

Had this today, Fuel-cuttoff unavailable on the display. Wouldn't crank. Was stuck in the middle of nowhere luckily AA guy knew of the common fault and replaced it. Such a poor part the OEM one, just fell to bits.

Had the same thing with the granddaughters car A,A didn't spot it ,took it to a garage had to pay 79pounds,very good video, very common fault on early ones Hers was a 9 plate.

Mate if your gonna make a vid about fixing it don’t chat shit about everything else with the fucking car

Absolutely bang on car wouldn’t jump from donor to battery but moving the negative to the engine it fired so tried the jump lead from the cars negative terminal to the engine mount and it fire straight away thanks for posting this

This car is a nightmare changed starter now it does nothing when trying to start it.

thanks so much, I was having the same problem and checked and both of the earth leads had corroded, replaced them and the car start straight away, thanks again.

Hello thank you for your explanation. could you tell me does the fiat 500 require the specific earth strap for fiat 500 or we can go to auto parts shop and buy a normal ground strap? Thank you!

well done mate thanks for this good video *****

Thanks for the video. Did the car give any faults on the display ? E.g. Fuel cut off not available - see handbook ? I have a 2008 Fiat 500 that won't crank but I get several faults on the display. Will check the earth wire ... Never had any problems before with this car.

There's not a lot of information on here or on the Internet regarding this problem, hopefully this is a simple fix for this model.
