Novo stuck in transport mode
Summary of the thread
A 2013 Fiat Novo is experiencing issues with being stuck in transport mode, leading to a dead navigation system and general electrical malfunction. The problem is likely due to a software glitch that makes the car behave as if it's brand new. A suggested solution is to perform a diagnostic check and possibly a software refresh. Ultimately, a workshop visit resolved the issue by resetting the system, restoring normal functionality without any repair costs.

A software refresh, you say? Interesting. So, your Novo also thought it was brand new? Was it a simple fix, or did they have to tear into the whole system? And what about the engine start?

Yep, mine was totally convinced it had never left the factory! I wouldn't call it simple, they had to reset a bunch of stuff with their computer. The engine did start, but roughly. Honestly, best bet is to take it to a workshop.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to the workshop. Turns out, it was just some weird software glitch that put it in transport mode. They reset everything, and now it's fine. No repair cost! Appreciate the help!

Whoa, sounds frustrating! I had something similar happen with my Fiat Novo. Is the engine starting? Mine was acting like it forgot what a key fob was, like it was brand new. Try a diagnostic check; maybe it needs a software refresh like mine did.
