martin2345uk Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Anyone got any ideas as to why my SS never activates? It’s a 2013 1L ecoboost, I don’t have the climate control on, the engine is in the “middle” temperature range, I come to a stop, put it in neutral and the engine never stops! Not sure if it’s me or a fault somewhere [emoji37] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4efc Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I assume you have toggled the SS switch. The battery could just not be charged enough. All depends on how long you drive the car for each day. Even though your coolant temp is at 90 degrees, doesn't mean you engine is up to temp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobr Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I had this problem when I first got mine. It turned out to be the battery monitor module. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjay1 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Try resetting the battery monitor to do this turn the car on to acc wait 10 seconds then press fog light switch 5 times then hazard switch 3 times then the battery light on dash will flash to confirm it was completed successfully Also won't hurt to charge your battery using a charger that is stop start battery compatible not all chargers are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin2345uk Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 I’ll try that thanks, what is “acc” though..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetta Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 it is the first click on the key when you turn it (the accessory position). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trewithy Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I have tried the reset and it didn't work in the acc position. you have to turn the key until all the dash lights illuminate, it works then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Tango Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 It works on position 2 (the one just before you turn the engine on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
