    Great video. What a pain in the arse device to get out. Would have broken something through frustration and rage if it wasn't for this.

    None of them need to be coded. The sticker means you shouldn't need to do a proxy alignment if put into the same car it came out of.

    Those seat belt anchor bolts have a tendency to snap unless you wire brush and lashings of WD40 on the end of the bolt in the wheel arch. You don't need to take the rear seat backs out either.

    Great bud, fixed my draining battery. Any ideas of the cigarette charging point will still work?

    If you're doing an older 500 the first thing to do is clean the rear seat belt lower mounting bolt which comes out through the wheel arch. Wire brush and wd40. If you remove the bolt without doing this it will shear. Very very important to do this.

    Great video. I have flashing mileage and a battery drain as well as the blue and me not working. Can I just unplug the unit rather than replace? I’m swapping out the head unit but want the mileage to stop flashing and steering wheel buttons to work. Cheers

      The flashing mileage is the cars way of saying something is not programmed correctly.
      If you removed / disabled the B&M it would stop your drain but continue to flash.
      Fitting a aftermarket radio would also cause the flash as the car will not recognise the foreign part .

      Thankfully it's behind the glove box in the US model. Thank God it's not in the Rear quarter panel!!!

    Thanks for your helpful video. I have a Fiat 500. BLUE&ME causes the battery to drain. Is it possible to disconnect the BLUE&ME from the power supply, or do I have to disassemble the panel and disconnect the connector from the unit? Thanks.

      We had a similar issue with a AlfaRomeo Giulietta .
      In theory you could just pull the fuse , but we opted to unplugged the unit physically.

    • @thorobredcars1975
      @thorobredcars1975  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes , although the mileage will flash which will be annoying , It’s a warning that a control unit is not correctly programmed.

    Is the blue&me located on the same side if the driver seat is on the left side?

    • @thorobredcars1975
      @thorobredcars1975  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’d imagine it would still be on the same side as this video, but honestly I would only be guessing 🤷🏻‍♂️

      Flashing Odometer means something is not programmed.
      Look for anomalies, Aftermarket radio ?
      Fiats do not like non genuine parts fitted.
      Ask for a Proxy Alignment to be carried out.
