What to do when the message "Start & stop not available, have the engine checked" appears on the dashboard? In this case, the message appears on an Alfa Romeo Giulietta, but it could appear in the same way on a Fiat, a Jeep, or a Lancia. Let's see through the EOBD port - located on the lower left side of the dashboard - what problem has occurred, by connecting an OBDII reader, then turn on the instrument panel, and on an Android device we read the "Alfa OBD" app and connect it via bluetooth to the OBD, select the OBD device and then the make and model of the car and then select "engine function". Select the control unit and make the connection: go to the bottom right where it says "check" and read all the errors; locate what the problem is and clear the error.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
