Start-Stop Disable / Removal Through ECU

Start-stop disable is one of the most popular ECU remapping solutions. The reason is that the start-stop system technology is becoming increasingly common on new vehicles but many people do not like that turning off and on each time they stop.

In this article, we will explain what is a start-stop system, how it works, what the problems are and why the start-stop disable service is the best solution for your vehicle!

 

WHAT IS START-STOP SYSTEM IN VEHICLES?

Start-stop system is an innovative system in vehicles created to make the driving process more economical and environmentally friendly. This technology refers to improving fuel economy and efficiency mostly in city driving mode. In other words, when you spend a lot of time at traffic jams and traffic lights, the system shuts down your vehicle’s engine and starts it again automatically when it is time to go.

The engine control unit (ECU) with start-stop software option involves components as DC converter, deep-cycle resistant battery, battery sensor, start-stop sensor, wheel speed sensor, neutral position sensor, crankshaft sensor and alternator with braking energy recovery.

Most new cars are equipped with this innovative start-stop technology, but is it as much beneficial as it seems to be? Let’s see how does the start-stop system work!

 

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The start-stop system operates in a really simple way. When the vehicle is stationary, the engine stops working automatically. So, when you stop at red light, for example, the engine switches off but many components continue to run – brakes, air conditioning system, power steering, sound system, etc. If you want to restart the engine and continue driving, you simply need to take your foot off the brake and press the clutch/gas pedal.

Manufacturers claim that start-stop system technology improves fuel efficiency and economy up to 10%, provides fuel savings and reduces the emissions.

 

PROBLEMS WITH START-STOP SYSTEM

While the start-stop system might improve fuel economy and emissions, some many disadvantages and problems might make the driving experience worse. Usually, there is a slight lag when starting from a stoplight, for example. Also, there is a bigger pressure on your vehicle’s starter motor because of the constant engine stopping and starting. In addition, the start-stop system requires more complex air conditioning system and electronically actuated power steering pumps.

Another disadvantage of the start-stop system is that the air conditioning system is not working properly when the engine stops and the outside temperature is high. So, if you stay long time at a traffic light, the interior temperature might get hotter and more uncomfortable.

In addition, if the engine is small, the feel of the engine starting and stopping is more seamless. When the engine is larger, the noise of the start-stop system is louder and usually there is a vibration which is so annoying. Lastly, if you use your vehicle for racing, the start-stop system hampers the overall engine performance and slows down your vehicle.

All these potential problems and disadvantages might cause mechanical or electrical failure. That is why we from Effective Tuning offer start-stop disable (start-stop removal / deactivation) through the ECU.
