Stop start not working?

[Savvyb123]

My stop start is definitely activated and worked once, however, whenever I am now getting it to work it just comes up with the stop start sign with a line through it on my dashboard, as if it’s telling me it’s not doing it. Any advice?

Hello Savannah,

The first potential culprit would be a sub standard battery - stop/start is usually the first function to stop working when the battery efficiency drops below par.

Halfords were doing battery checks - when open. Buying a replacement from Halfords? Worth shopping around on-line specialist suppliers first. 

Kind regards,

Gareth.
