Fiorino Lights Randomly Switching On

I'm experiencing a strange electrical issue with my 2001 Fiat Fiorino gasoline engine, mileage is 63731 km. I'm having problems with the lights. They sometimes switch on randomly, and the error memory shows a fault related to the light switch. I suspect a defective cable or plug connection.

Summary of the thread

A 2001 Fiat Fiorino is experiencing an issue where the lights randomly switch on, with an error memory indicating a fault related to the light switch. The suspected causes include a defective cable or plug connection. A similar issue in another vehicle was resolved by addressing a faulty connection in the light switch assembly. The recommended solution is to have the vehicle inspected and repaired by a professional workshop, which successfully resolved the problem in this case.

That sounds frustrating! I had a similar issue with my old Renault Scenic. The dashboard lights flickered like crazy, and it turned out to be a faulty connection in the light switch assembly. It was as temperamental as a toddler who doesn't want to take a nap. Have you checked the dimmer switch? Sometimes those can cause issues too.

Thanks for the reply. You mentioned the dimmer switch. Is there a way to test the dimmer switch, or any specific cable I should be looking at in particular?

Unfortunately, without specialized equipment, testing the dimmer switch itself is tricky. Given it's a similar fault on a different car, and you already suspect a cable issue, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. They'll be able to diagnose the exact fault and perform the repair properly. It's like trying to fix a watch with a hammer – sometimes best left to the professionals!

Thanks a lot for your help and the analogy. I took it to the workshop, and you were right; a faulty connection in the light switch assembly. Repair cost me 95€ Appreciate the advice!
