[QUOTE="Big Papi, post: 30888, member: 6910"] Think of it as the canary in the coal mine. Will it 'not working' cause a problem - No. Does not working indicate a problem - maybe. For stop start to work a long list of conditions must be met, battery voltage, engine temperature, accessories in use or not in use, ambient air temp, and on and on. A list of over a dozen conditions need to be met for it to operate and there is even a longer list of conditions that will defeat it. The only way to find out what is going on is a complete system scan, NOT the free one that auto parts stores offer. They just want to use fault codes as a parts list to sell you stuff. So something is up and a checkup at your local trusted independent auto repair shop is highly recommended. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
