Highlander Start Stop Problem

Hi, I've got a 2006 Toyota Highlander with a gasoline engine and the start-stop system has stopped working. The error memory has stored an error, and the engine shuts off with a warning light on the speedometer. I suspect the battery, any ideas?

Hello! I had a similar issue with my Highlander. Does the engine shut off and then fail to automatically restart?

Yes, that's exactly what's happening. It shuts off as it should, but then won't automatically restart. Is that what you experienced?

That is correct. The vehicle needs to be manually restarted each time, correct? In my case the battery was heavily discharged, and I had to visit a workshop to get it checked and changed.

Thanks for the confirmation. Looks like I'll be heading to a workshop to get the battery checked out. The eventual repair cost was 290€. I appreciate the help!
