    Ask on the Fiat 500 forums, it seems like this problem has come up a few times. The Ka Mk2 is not a Ford, the electrics, engine, and all modules are Fiat. Even FORScan software reportedly does not work with them making it very difficult to carry out full diagnostics.

    Could a damaged earth strap cause the issue with the abs and immobiliser light on the dash I have just had a look at the lower strap doesn’t look to good

    It would seem unlikely, but simple enough to fit a new one.
