Skoda Fabia epc light with stop start error showing.

Stop start will not operate if battery condition / voltage is low .Get battery LOAD tested , check voltage after lying overnight prior to starting . May need charging or replaced , especially if original .

Many thanks for info will do as you suggest, however I heard a rumour sometime ago that the start/stop system used a separate battery, independent of main battery to operate it, any info you may have on this will be much appreciated

Thanks

Unless you have an EV .In an EV, the 12-volt battery serves several important functions. It powers the vehicle’s electrical systems when the car is not in use including the central locking system, alarm, and other security features. The 12-volt battery also powers the vehicle’s onboard computer and diagnostic systems. It also plays a role in starting the main high-voltage battery pack, which is responsible for powering the electric motor and moving the vehicle.

Another important function of the 12-volt battery is to act as a buffer for the main high-voltage battery pack and to ensure a steady supply of electricity to the vehicle’s electrical systems.
Rumours..............................................lol

No I dont have an EV thank god but thanks for explanation anyway wont listen to rumours again

Thanks again for your info

IF you need a new battery , make sure it is a stop / start type . Cars with stop / start have a heavy duty battery and starter as opposed to cars without due to the repeated usage
