Why is the Fiat 500 Start & Stop system not available?
Years 2012-2023

Answer

The Start & Stop system of the Fiat 500 needs a minimum level of battery charge to activate, in addition to the position of the gearbox in neutral. The minimum battery level is usually around 80%. Another reason could be the sensor that reads the position of the gear in neutral not perfectly working or faulty. In both cases, the trusted workshop will be able to both check the state of charge of the battery, recharge or replace it if necessary, and replace or recalibrate the gear sensor.
