Stop/Start batteries

Volvo into our workshop with stop/start fault.

The vehicle has several monitors in place that check the condition of the battery to makes sure if the vehicle stops it will start again.

This vehicle had stop/ start warnings on dash, Even though it started fine. Testing the battery it failed the tests, so a replacement was sourced.

These are special batteries that charge differently than lead acid and as the battery gets older the vehicle charges it differently.

So when you replace the battery you have to tell the car the battery has changed or the car may damage the new battery.

With the correct equipment we can make sure your battery is ready for winter.
