Troubleshooting Auto Hatch and Start Stop Issues

Mary_Read · Dec 2, 2024

Hey everyone, I’ve got a 2019 Nautilus Reserve, and I’ve noticed that both the auto start-stop feature and the foot-activated hatch release aren’t working. It’s still running on the original battery, so I’m wondering, could a weak or aging battery be the cause of this? Am I going for a battery replacement?

If anyone’s had similar issues or has suggestions on what to check, I’d appreciate the help. Should I be looking at replacing the battery, or could it be something else?

Considering the car is from 2019, yes, it could be the battery. Do you have a multimeter? If yes, test the battery and see if it reads 12.6V when the engine is off.

Considering the age of your Nautilus, it most likely the battery is the problem. Replace it already.

A weak or old battery could totally be the culprit, since both the auto start-stop feature and foot-activated hatch release need good power to work right. If the battery’s voltage is too low, those systems might not play nice. However, it’s a good idea to get the battery’s charge and health checked at a service center before jumping to conclusions about replacing it. If the battery’s all good, then maybe something like a fuse or sensor is causing the trouble.
