2017 Fiat 500 Lounge - wrong body controller?
Posted: 19 Jul 2025, 16:32
Hi
I’ve been using MES with my recently purchased UK model 2017 Fiat 500 Lounge 1.2.
Everything has been fine, except for the fact that if I try and access the “Body” controller in MES, and I select “Body Computer Delphi (312)” - what I would expect it to be - it connects but tells me that it’s invalid ISO code (or something like that), and that I should use “500c” instead.
“Body Computer Delphi (312) MY12” shows the same warning.
The problem is - my car isn’t a 500c. It’s a regular hardtop Lounge.
I have no reason to believe the BCM would have ever been changed. There’s no indication that it has been, but I suppose it’s possible?
Does anyone know why this is? Is this normal for this type of car?
Thanks in advance.
