Hi All Have the Check Light come on and stay on and got a scan code reader which says P1510 error which appears to be a Starter Signal error.
Looked around on Net but can't seem to find a answer how to repair the issue.
Does anybody on here know of how to fix the issue?.
Any help would be much appreciated.

A good place to start would be a wiring diagram. If you can't find one, post the year/engine and someone might be able to point you in the right direction.
In short the cars computer system on modern vehicles usually monitors the starter input, sometimes there is no direct connection to the starter from the ignition switch at all now, it just becomes a signal to the computer that you would like to start the car. The computer then forwards the signal to the starter if other conditions for starting are met. The code you are seeing I would suggest is related to the signal being available to the computer.
I would start with clearing the code and checking it does come back. If it comes back predictably you should be able to follow the wiring diagram with a test light or multimeter and spot where the issue is. You will likely need an assistant to operate the key while you monitor the light/multimeter.
That's a fairly broad overview so yell out if you need more specifics.

You are most welcome. As above, come back if you need help with the diagram or specifics on testing.

I have based my response on the description not the code. So if your description is wrong this could well be the case.
If you post the year/engine might help too.

I did a quick check in autodata for 03-07 Charades with the 1.0 engine.
