How to activate and deactivate the Start&Stop function of the Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this guide, we will see the main instructions that will allow us to activate and deactivate the Start&Stop system of the Smart Fortwo. First of all, we get on board the car and start the engine; usually we find the Start&Stop system always active at the first start of the engine and it will be possible to deactivate it thanks to the specific button that we find on the dashboard (next to the steering wheel) on the driver's side, as shown in the video. By pressing the Start&Stop button, the LED on it will light up, indicating that the Start&Stop system is deactivated; conversely, the Start&Stop system will be active.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
