    I-Stop - Stopped functioning

    Yes, the dealer attempted this way but the system kept reporting battery stuck at 54%, no change, no charge. Lastly it was disconnected as per above and it started to function as normal again.

    I-Stop - Stopped functioning

    Whenever the I-Stop system stops functioning and showing battery not enabled. Disconnect battery for 25min with all electricals switched off and doors closed. Re-connect battery and reset elec windows etc. Go for a drive and after a few miles the system will work as normal again.
