Best solution I can think is leave it in N mode, doesn’t seem to do it then
really? will test that.

I don't understand, how would you expect a hybrid car to work? Never turn on the combustion engine, or never turn it off? What exactly frustrates you about it? The frustrating bit on the start/stop system in conventional cars is that you can get a delay before engine starts and is able to move the car... That does not apply to hybrids?
You'll need a good physiotherapist if you plan on driving like that all day long.really? will test that.
Huh, didn't know that... sounds more like a car with KERS than a hybridASD, Sadly that is true when your hybrid is a true hybrid and can run from electrical power only.
But the CRX is a "Honda hybrid". It uses engine power ALL the time, and just uses the electric motor to "boost" the engine power under hard acceleration, and recharges the battery when braking. The electric motor is attached to the engine, it doesn't drive the wheels or gearbox.
The CR-Z still needs to fire up the engine, just like a non hybrid car before it takes off. So it has the same lag time everyone with stop/start whines about. True that is not how most hybrids work, but the CR-Z is a conventional car with Hybrid boost!
So my complaint that it can't be turned off is a valid one![]()
You have some more info? Pictures?Having seen the interest here for a start-stop memory module, I thought 'I can make one of those', for much less than the commercial ones available (I'm an electronic engineer).
I've got a prototype up and running on the bench, whcih stores the current state of the system, and simulates a button press on startup if necessary.
In order to finalise the hardware design, I need to check the connections available at the on/off button by the gearlever, so was looking for any tips on how to pull this bit apart - has anyone done this yet?
Yes, the example in the link is correct.I think it will be like this...

The other possibility would be to invert the signal after switching it on. (via transistors or relay)

What code pops up in the CAN lines when you press that button?
No, its no code. It's a digital signal. The signal is delayed after powering on the car. The last state of the controller will be saved and executed after turning the car on next time.Yes, the example in the link is correct.
I think when you press the SS OFF button there will be a code send thru the can lines. You need to intercept this code and replicate it using a small circuitry that contains a programmable IC. You also must program a delay of a few seconds after starting the engine I would think?
Your suggestion will also work, it you have a small delay after you start the engine, trigger the relay/transistor wich bridges the SS OFF switch for 1 second.
I see! Quite easy overallNo, its no code. It's a digital signal. The signal is delayed after powering on the car. The last state of the controller will be saved and executed after turning the car on next time.
Inverting signal could be done with a simple ne555 for the delay and 2 transistors for inverting the signal. so 0=1 and 1=0. The car starts with ASS off.
