This bulletin applies to 2013 Fiat 500 vehicles equipped with a 1.4L engine, manual transmission and electronic vehicle information center (EVIC). The customer may notice when trying to select the gear shift indicator (Gear Shift Up) in a personal setting, the shift indicator does not display in the EVIC. A reflash may be needed.

Using a scan tool with the appropriate diagnostic procedures available in TechCONNECT, verify that no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are set (if DTCs are present, record and repair as needed before proceeding). Update the software in the instrument cluster. The wiTECH software level must be at release 14.02 or higher.
