Repair your failing headlamp on Fiat panda 169 (Save up to 200€) 🚙

[@joseramonrodriguez5503]

Buenas, te estoy super agradecido por tu video. Hace unos días he tenido la misma avería que describes en el faro de un panda, antes de llevarlo a reparar he mirado todo cuanto se me ha ocurrido y finalmente tu video ha caido en mis manos y he solucionado el problema. A día de hoy creo haberme ahorrado unos 300€. Gracias por compartir. Saludos

The Video helped me right away, I have a Fiat 169 (Panda), the exact same connector was melted so only 1 headlight was working. So, Thankyou very much.

Thank you for the feedback! If it fails again you may want to see the new video on this problem when I finnaly replace the connector with the recommended spare part. Here I left the link just in case you find this useful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gV7RY3-GgNucnrM

Great Success!!!! Many thanks, Fiat wanted to charge us €1200 (no joke) and we fixed it thanks to your most excellent video

[@GuyInAMountain]

Thanks for your feedback!!💪

[@TheIncognito0555]

Thanks for the tip. I have manage to solve problem for now. I had a bad contact on connector, the contact did not burn for now but this is obviously some type od factory mistake on this version od Panda. I have one od last version of this Panda (manufactured 11/2011) and I think that is very sad that manucturer did not solve this problem on later versions od this Panda.

Perfect

Thanks for your feedback 🤙👍

[@pierredanil9315]

Gracias por el consejo 👍

[@ecoonce23]

Thank you for the vdos, they are very very helpful. Question though; how do you take the headlight assembly out to replace the whole unit. Currently my driver side headlight unit has moisture in it and I would like to replace it, plus it is getting cloudy and reducing the lighting. Thank you once again for your tutorial videos.

[@GuyInAMountain]

Hi Sec, Sorry, I do not have access to the Fiat Panda anymore since I have change my car. I have some friends that have the car, if they have this problem I can try to repair them and make the video but I don't know when. Thanks for your feedback and for giving me an idea for a video. If you live near Barcelona I can repair yours and make the video

[@314151618]

How did you manage to get out the connector, without destroying everything?

[@GuyInAMountain]

It is hard, take time. Patience and thin screwdriver...

[@314151618]

@@GuyInAMountain thanks man. Turned out my initial thought was right. The damn thing was just baked together.

[@Anorrea]

tengo el mismo problema en el panda y un mecanico electricista me ha presupuestado 300 euros. Seria muy dificil comprar el kit de reparacion e instalarlo uno mismo? el kit es facil de encontrar por eso

[@GuyInAMountain]

Sí, venden el kit en todas las web de repuestos o ebay. Si eres un poco manitas y tienes un día para dedicarte al coche, no parece complicado. Si no lo hubiera solucionado con el método del video, habría comprado el kit y lo habría instalado yo mismo.

[@GuyInAMountain]

El kit cuesta unos 40 euros. Vale la pena intentarlo creo, sino, pediría más ofertas a otros mecánicos

[@Anorrea]

compre el kit y funciona, es facil de instalar, solo hay que comprar conectores y vainas ya que los 2 cables del kit son de aluminio y los cables a conectar son de cobre. Gracias.

[@GuyInAMountain]

Alvaro Luna Gracias por el feedback! Me alegra saber que pudieras resolverlo tu mismo. Saludos!!

[@hristijan9400]

brother help, one low beam work ( right), but one doesnt work(left). What will be problem Bulb working, fuse work...

[@GuyInAMountain]

It started like this for me, one sido working and other don't, it is probably the connector melted.

[@hristijan9400]

@@GuyInAMountain thank you

My left light went out and they put in a rele from the right lamp.

[@pauquiros3584]

Me voy hacer fan tuyo

[@GuyInAMountain]

Pau Quiros así me gusta!!

[@batchip]

Hi, you have repair only a dirty contact. The lamp fails again in a few monts. :-( Is better use a relais for decrease the current on the connector ;-)....

[@GuyInAMountain]

Thank Roberto for your comment. You are right. I did this to pass the car inspection. After that I did the repair with the spare part because it failed again. Here is the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gV7RY3-GgNucnrM

[@niller88]

@Roberto Ongago How did you install the relay before power reaches the connector? Or would installing the relay directly onto the headlight help?

[@cubensic]

I tried this and both of my lights now don't work

[@GuyInAMountain]

Maybe the connector is very damaged and you need to replace the connector but you can try first to change the fusibles. Take a look to the next video where I show you how to do this two things: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gV7RY3-GgNucnrM

[@angelosabr]

Sostituire connettore e fari a led h4

[@GuyInAMountain]

Nice recomendation! Less intensity throw the wire and the it will not burn the connector again. I had to repaired three times already. I will try this. In Spain you will need to remember to put back the incandescent bulb when doing the ITV every year.
