Hi Shaun, We fitted an Instrument panel to a Punto, Believe it or not for our Local Main Dealer ( Now Bankrupt and closed down ). They thought that the original fault hadn't been cured as they fitted a Spare insrument panel that they used for testing purposes and it still had some faulty items, ( Although when we saw it, we realised that all the original faults had been cured and new ones had cropped up. The Reason was that they had fitted an instrument panel out of an automatic car into a manual car and it didn't match up. Anyway, after we had fitted the new panel the Dealers told us that it didn't need programming but the LCD panel kept flashing, So we sent it back and it they eventually managed to program it up and it sorted the problem out. So It sounds as though something in yours still needs programming. ?
