Fiat Novo Intermittent Starting

Experiencing a perplexing issue with my 2016 Fiat Novo, gasoline engine. At 160945 km, the engine intermittently fails to start, sometimes shuts off abruptly while driving, and occasionally runs roughly. Dashboard lights seem normal. Thinking of checking the ignition coil and starter motor. Could a defective fuse cause such varied symptoms? Any insights?

The initial suspicion was on the ignition coil and starter motor, with a query about whether a defective fuse could cause such symptoms. The problem was ultimately traced to a defective fuse linked to the ignition switch, which was replaced, resolving the issue.

Sounds familiar. I had similar probs with my old Opel Corsa, but it was the fuel pump relay acting up. Have you checked that?

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't considered the fuel pump relay. Where is that located, and how would I test it to see if it's faulty?

Honestly, I wouldn't know where it is on your Fiat, and testing it is beyond my skills. With those kinds of issues, you should probably take it to a workshop.

Appreciate the advice! As it turns out, it was a defective fuse linked to the ignition switch, causing all the chaos. Replaced it, and the total cost was only 52€. Thanks again!
