At an initial glance, the battery in a vehicle equipped with “Start/Stop” functionality may look the same as any other. And you might think that servicing or replacing them is done the same way you’ve always done it.
You’d be wrong.

Start/stop function is a solution to a problem we never had.
I turn start stop off as soon as engine starts 👍 save more expensive parts like starter motor from excessive wear
This gentleman in this video speaks all my doubts. I have a 2021 Toyota Highlander at first I replaced the battery thinking it was the problem, in less than a year stop/start has failed me again left me without power in traffic lights my mechanic test the battery it’s still good so now I drive without activate the stop start feature. I hate it so much.
I disabled the START/STOP function with a $25 cable bought off Amazon on my 2018 Chevy Malibu LT.
Remember one other item. That Autel memory saver is using pin 16 of the DLC. That is a "fused" 12 volt terminal. What is the condition of that fuse? Some vehicles use that fuse to power up "power points" also called cigarette lighters. Plug in to the power point something that blows out that fuse and your memory saver won't work. There goes all the modules memories and here comes the headaches! Be certain pin 16 is working before plugging in the memory saver and disconnecting the battery.
I installed a start/stop eliminator module in both of my vehicles. I was at a light with a dead engine because the start/stop system wasn’t working. It took six starts to get going and ordered the elimination module the next day. Tip: If your car has a 120v outlet, try using a nightlight. In certain vehicles this will disable the start/stop.
Thank you. This is a great, informative video. I never realised the differences between stop start and other systems.
Great video as usual, Thanks for sharing Pete👍
Thanks Abe,Great video 👊🏼

Hi there, I have another question. Do I have to first undo the ground cable or the negative bolt of the pole, in a Ford vehicle which has the stop&start system and BMS, before to swap or recharge the battery outside the vehicle? Thanx again!
I never use the dtart/stop function. It's the first thing I turn off after starting
great usefull content m8
Disconnecting the Start/Stop is the 1st thing that needs to be done.
Thanks Pete, great video. Are there any issues regarding keeping a charger/maintainer on stop/start vehicles? Will this "confuse" the ECM?

It can, you may be able to find where to connect one in the owners manual. You basically want to connect it where the current sensors detect power going into the battery.
What do i do if i have no terminals to connect the aux batt to?
Can I use a start stop battery in my older car which doesn't have that feature?
perfect video ! keep it up ! :) just a quick question.. my car is i30 2015 and and need to change battery for AGM, the thing is that positive is on left side... do u think its ok to install battery in 180 degrees? back to front... Thanks!

I wouldn't try - odds are the cables may not reach and I always encourage techs to only replace any component with an OE equivalent. Stick with the battery specs it came with.

Save time and just replace a battery with the same size with the same specs. Start/stop vehicle's might have a larger spec battery, but if so, again just replace with what was on the vehicle. It's really a no brainer.
Wrong. The battery doesn't run the electricals on a vehicle the alternator does that. The battery is simply a reservoir of energy to run things while the engine is off like starting the engine.

Hi, my vehicle has a EFB battery, I know it is possible to upgrade it with a AGM type. You suggest on the video it's not always better to use a more powerful battery, especially with today's cars with much electronics and stop and start system as well. Searching for AGM batteries I've found specs a little hotter than my stock EFB battery, is it a problem? I can't find a AGM with the same values of my actual Efb. Thanx!

A new AGM(Absorbed glass mat) will do the trick.
can a 2018 Toyota Highlander XLE gas with start stop swap its 604CCA EFB battery with either a 710CCA EFB or an AGM? Are there ECM / BMS settings that need to be adjusted in either case? If yes, will the Autel BT work with the Toyota?

You will have no problem swapping it out for a higher CCA. Just make sure it is a AGM battery. You don't have to reset anything. I did it. Runs good again. When you get into the 2020 Highlander I heard those have to be set by a scanner.
Thank you great info...can do without the loud background music to hear you better...

2:02 ... "every time the car comes to a stop the car shuts off to conserve fuel"... our 2014 LR4 doesn't shut off every time... only occasionally....which is concerning, especially in city driving...and my wife drives cross country.

Sometimes the stop/start feature will be disabled by the car for example, the temperature outside is to cold. Or the air con is running hard with other power drawing devices like radios and headlights etc. A battery has the largest power draw at start up so if other things are running it would put a considerable strain on the battery to continue using the start/stop feature.
We just bought a 2014 LR4 and it's stalls at stop lights. Would the aux battery cause this?
I think I would rather stick with my old vehicle. I had a Subaru with a stop/start and hated it. I disconnected this functionality. The CVT transmission was horrible. I back traded it on an older car 🚘. From 🇦🇺

I have a 2020 Grand Cherokee with 18k miles on it. A yellow auto start/stop light is on on my dash. From time to time I noticed the radio and interior lighting wont shut off when I parked the car for the day. 30 minutes after turning the engine off the radio and interior lights are still on. I have to pull the positive lead off the battery to shut them down. Anyone else having this issue? Also I don't use the auto start/stop function at all. Any help is appreciated.

Sounds like you may have some module issues. If these are bringing the battery down, it may be disabling the Start/Stop function. If it is under warranty, take it to your local dealer.

Hello, about the start-stop function, if you want to DIY the settings, you need related high-end equipment. I recommend the Phoenix Plus from Topdon to you, because I am also using this product to perform the start-stop function. Some problems, the experience is not bad. This is a video of me using Plus to activate the start-stop function for the 2017 Audi A4L: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJuh19icpqSnk8Y.html , share it with you here, you can refer to it. If you are interested, you can click to take a look, or give me your opinion. There are more videos on my homepage of using different devices to do different functions of the car. You are welcome to follow me and I will be happy to answer your questions. thanks.
Hello
The start\stop function is a joke. I maybe, save $5 to $10 of gas per year (and I'm a top Uber driver in my area). But yet, the battery only lasts 2 years. The battery sells for $144 plus $20 installation. What a joke.

Do not take the function on a cost saving perspective. The function was mainly introduced considering the environment. Suppose 100 vehicle stopped at a red signal switch off engine for one minute, how much carbon emission could be cutted down with no human effort. There is always a bright side of each technology..
Technically, can just leave the car running while replacing the battery and stay away from all this process?
Not only is the 'music' unnecessary it's also distracting.
Had to get out because of music...

So now they've made batteries difficult to replace yourself... I can get a battery, but it is the "registering" of said battery that needs a pro. Ugh...

Stupid bs so much technology but were still so stupid when designing things.
Absolutely detest "start-stop"
This video just turned gay as soon as he stopped talking about stop start functions on a stop start vehicle battery system. He is now advertising a generic battery tester that every shop has but he’s got one in his Scan tool because of the software. That’s a cool function but who gives a shit.

I can tell you from experience that not reprogramming your battery back to the vehicle (if required) will certainly and drastically shorten its life. I have installed hundreds of batteries. I can also tell you some battery suppliers are now starting to require that you supply proof of recalibration in the event of a warranty claim for the do-it yourselfers. Just FYI. @@jakelincoln9895

It’s a great video, I rather stick with my old 🚗 car, seems ridiculous having to register a battery. You don’t want to have a breakdown in the bush like in Australia. What will happen when we only have electric cars? All this testing will become obsolete? I wonder. From 🇦🇺🦘
