No more stop/start.

[drivesafe]

About a month ago, I read where by disconnecting a two wire plug on the Negative ( - ) battery terminal clamp, the STOP/START function no longer works.

I disconnected the plug a month ago and the STOP/START function has not worked since.

I wanted to check that this did not cause any error messages to be generated, and to date, nothing out of the ordinary has happened.

I also needed to monitor the operating voltage of the alternator, as I suspected the operation of the alternators voltage levels may be effected by this mod.

I needed to monitor the charge voltage as I occasionally use a second battery and wanted to see if this was going to be effected.

The operating voltage stays at a steady 13.6v to 13.85v at all times in any operating condition.

Again, this has not caused any adverse charging problems and because the voltage does not drop to 13.0v as it normally would, the charging of both batteries is actually improved.
