Fiat Coupe Turbo 20v Nov 1997 owned from new
I disabled the klaxon long ago and also resorted to using the key rather than the fob to lock the car. [Lazy option maybe]
If car is left unused and battery runs down, the lights flash all round until the battery is recharged.
This time, although I've recharged the battery and car starts OK, the flashing lights will not go off. I even took the risk and drove 18 miles in this condition in case battery charge was an issue, rhen put it on overnight charge, but to no avail even though the casr starts fine. Could someone kindly send me instructions on how to disable the flashing lights so I can drive the car again!

Do you still have the fob and does it still work? If so just pressing the button *should* solve this, but I'm assuming from your post you've no longer got access to the fob?

Thanks. It didn't work before, perhaps because the battery was under-charged. Today, the dashboard lamp was red with no key and when ignition turned on. The fob button when pressed changed this to flashing red but applying revs led it to disappear. No external hazard light flashing now. Hope it stays this way.

Thanks for pointing out simple solution - I was punchdrunk!
