Fiat Tipo - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Tipo MK 1 - Years 1988-2000
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Deactivation of the Start/Stop feature of the Fiat Tipo.

The Start/Stop system of the Fiat Tipo is designed to turn off the engine when we are stopped at a traffic light and to restart it when we start moving again. However, there are users who do not like this function and would prefer to deactivate it. To do this, it is necessary to know that part of the operation is based on the reading, by a sensor, of the battery voltage. Therefore, it is necessary to locate this sensor, which in the Tipo is positioned laterally on the negative terminal clamp wired with a connector that we will disconnect and place in a safe position. After driving a few kilometers, the system will adjust to the new condition and the Start/Stop function will no longer activate. There will only be a warning light on the dashboard to remind us of the deactivation.
