Fiat Cronos Antenna Fault

My 2018 Fiat Cronos with a gasoline engine is giving me trouble. I'm getting an error stored in the error memory. Also, unlocking/locking is acting up, and I can't start the engine without the key in the ignition lock. Mileage is at 245041 km. Suspect it's the bumper antenna, maybe a faulty cable or plug. Anyone seen this?

Sounds familiar! I had similar issues with my Cronos. Was a pain. Is your radio reception also garbage?

Yeah, the radio reception is terrible. What exactly was the problem with yours?

Yep, same here. It was definitely the antenna connection. I tried fiddling with it myself, but no luck. Bit the bullet and took it to a workshop. Cost me about 95€, and they sorted it quick.

Thanks for the info. Took it to a shop, and you were spot on – faulty antenna connection. Replaced it for 95€, and everything's back to normal.
