start-stop system

[Qw506599873]

I don't know if only happened to me or everyone, my stinger when stepping on break, sometime orange color ( start-stop system) on dashboard, which the car didn't turn off. sometimes green shows on dashboard which turned the car off and back on again when released. Is there setting for that? or something broke. Thanks

There are several conditions which must be met for the car to shut off. When the car stops, the light will go orange. Unless everything checks out it will stay orange. If all the conditions have been met, it will go green and the car will shut off. There is a list of those conditions on this forum somewhere, I'll see if I can find the thread.
Short answer long... It's normal

Chapter 5 page 102 of your manual.......
The engine will also restart automatically without the driver’s any actions if the following occurs:
- The fan speed of manual climate control system is set above the 3rd position when the air conditioning is on.
- The fan speed of automatic climate control system is set above the 6th position when the air conditioning is on.
- When a certain amount of time has passed with the climate control system on.
- When the defroster is on.
- The brake vacuum pressure is low.
- The battery charging status is low.
- The vehicle speed exceeds 1 mph (1 km/h).
- Engine is turned off by Auto Stop for a long time.
- If you unfasten the seat belt or open the driver's door while depressing the brake pedal.

And if you want to disable/reprogram/prevent it from happening again there are members on the forum who have installed this:

Shark Racing - Auto-Hold and ISG Hold Memory Module

Something I am considering as I cant stand the ISG.

Having that is definitely a good thing if it annoys you.. One disadvantage is if you are using the Break snip at the track, the Auto off function needs to be untouched for the snip to work properly. If you're not a track guy, then automatically disabling it has no disadvantage.

I don't think its as much an auto disabler as it is a memory module for how the switch was set the last time the car shutoff. Usually for me right after pressing the Start button, I look for the ISG to turn it off and Auto Hold to turn it on. This part alleviates that process.
