D4 MY 2016 - Eco warning light staying on

Hi,

The Eco warning light is coming on/staying on the dash.
Have charged up the secondary battery overnight with the CTEK charger..... no joy.
warning light still coming on.

Run fault check on the IIDTool:
L319 - Discovery 4 2016
Vehicle scanned on 17-12-2021 09:38
Using IIDTool BT V3.0 B2134
PCM-Engine SDV6
• U0447-00 (2F) Unknown
( on 17-12-2021 09:38:15 at 98233 km )

Any procedure to check the battery please?

Any help please?

Many thanks
JC

I would suggest it’s your small secondary battery.
Even though you’ve charged it, it’s probably needing replaced.


A couple of years ago I had my main battery changed and after that the eco light came on.
Changed the secondary battery too and all was well.

Hi again,

I've fitted the small battery and the Eco warning light has now gone out.
I can turn Eco on and off, but have not yet had a stop/start......

Anything else I need to do to get the stop/start working ?
Car is still on LR warranty - do I need to go back dealer for support?

Many thanks

JC

I had software update on a MY16 D4, performed by LRA, which fixed a start/stop issue where the engine wasn’t “stopping”.

I always recommend using LRA in the first instance rather than going to a main dealer. Assuming of course that you have LRA.

You should check your main battery, as that could also need renewing.

But before that, give it a good run if you can, but don’t use heated seats, steering wheel, windscreen etc.

Stop/Start needs to meet the following basic criteria to work.

Battery/Batteries fully charged.
Engine at normal operating temperature.
Outside air temperature between 0 and 40 degrees. Sometimes it needs to be +3 or 4 degrees rather than 0.
No significant drain from audio/heating systems.

There are other factors but those are the main ones.

I don't think it will use start/stop if you have a lot of other things going e.g. fan, heated seats, heated windscreen, air con etc. until it's warm enough and it's happy that it can start again. Maybe this morning it was just too cold. Rolling Eyes

Main battery failing, doesn’t matter how much you charge it if it is not storing sufficient amps SS will not work.
 It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Hi again,

All batteries charged and car working fine.
All except the Eco stop/start.
No warning lights.......
I can turn it on/off with the button.
But no Eco stop/start when expected......
Have I missed something?

Do I have to do some resets through the IIDTool?

Many thanks

JC

I’ve no idea about a IID reset, but I think the stop/start is just very intermittent. Probably due to the many conditions that need to be right as listed by others above. I did exactly the same as you after the ECO dash warning. Changed both batteries and it occasionally worked a bit, but it was very inconsistent Question

I have stop start and it only works in these conditions warm day no aircon heaters completely turned off car up to temperature and battery’s fully charged with air conditioning on inside temp within range it works in traffic it’s a pain so turned off and to be honest I prefer it turned off
