fiat punto steering light staying on

[rachelsdad]

i have a 2003 punto and the red steering warning light on the dashboard comes on when driving,without any loss of steering.can anyone help in offering any reasons and what to check as very reluctant to try a fiat dealer due to their habit of `finding' work when it is not always needed....

bad earth at the battery can cause this or a fualt in the electric power steering system

Just going to vouch for Joe at Magik Spanners.

I rang him yesterday (17/4/13) to book my car in. I saw him today at 7pm. 7.37pm I left with my power steering working. He also fixed a faulty airbag light free of charge.

Total: £70

Great guy, with a geniune passion for fixing cars.

Definitely keeping him top of my list for future servicing.

Couldn't recommend anyone better..
