Avventura refusing to start

Having a spot of bother with my 2017 Fiat Avventura, petrol engine. Done 87777 km. It's refusing to start sometimes. Other times it'll cut out while driving, and occasionally runs really rough. Checked the fuses, all seem fine. Any ideas?

Summary of the thread

A 2017 Fiat Avventura with a petrol engine was experiencing intermittent starting issues, cutting out while driving, and running roughly. The initial checks on fuses showed no problems. A suggestion was made to inspect the ignition coil, but the issue was ultimately traced to a faulty ignition switch. Replacing the ignition switch resolved the problem, and the vehicle now operates smoothly.

Sounds familiar. I've got a Fiat Avventura too, and had similar issues a while back. Engine would crank but wouldn't fire up. Did you check the ignition coil?

Ignition coil, eh? Whereabouts is that located, and how would I go about checking it?

It's usually near the spark plugs. Honestly, unless you're comfortable with car electrics, it's probably best to take it to a workshop. They'll have the right tools to diagnose it properly.

Cheers, took your advice and went to a local garage. Turns out it was indeed something with the ignition switch. They replaced it for 52€. Runs like a dream now!
