Non rangers - car help 14:34 - Apr 27 with 1092 views

Hello all

Anyone know why a stop start would stop working ? It’s been like it for a long time battery was changed last year so not that it had stopped long before that happened. I’ve tried researching nothing conclusive found !

Poll:

Now it’s slightly clearer cut who do you want as manager ?

If it's on a Honda, it is a well-known fault but a easy fix. The way I've done it, is to remove the trim which houses the unit, unclip the connectors and take the whole thing out. Spray the connectors and inside the barrel of the unit with WD40 and replace. Job done. No idea why this fault persists, as Honda have known about it for years and they use the same part across the range.

Edit - sorry, was typing before I read the model. YouTube will definitely have help videos on this issue.

Have a Google into the criteria needed for stop start to work .

For instance the battery voltage must be at a certain level , running the air con or having heated seats or screen on will put a load on that may mean that it doesnt stop start.
It wont operate if the engine is not up to temperature either .
Lots of short journeys will affect it

Do you have a deactivate switch on the dashboard?

I have one on my Ford truck, which I use regularly as I'm not overly keen on this feature.

Low battery on my car messes up the start stop.

Battery needs to be a certain type to be compatible for a start stop car apparently.

I have an Alfa
