The electrical section on a Fiat forum should be quite a busy place I would think. ;)

That would explain the electrical issues - French + Electricity = Breakdown ;D


Sorry, last time we had a Fiat in the family, it was not possible to hook a ZX81 up to tinterweb...

On many cars, with seperate alarm and locking systems, its normally a case of adding motors etc to 'manually' lock the central locking when alarm is set.

I would have though if the ECUs had the capability, Fiat would have utilised it  :-/

Looks like you probably have the best link already, from my (brief) search, hope you find what you want :)
