If I wanted to disable the start/stop completely could I just disconnect the negative of the auxiliary battery?

@tdawggold says:

Awesome video, everything was made simple thank you so much

@Richie_in_3D says:

How would one no this battery needs replacing? Is that the little message on the dashboard that says “ service start stop system”

@leslieforbach3115 says:

Im glad I watched this video. My car shuts off and won't restart on its own. Now its not wanting to start when I shut it off. Parts store checked battery 4 times. Bad 1st try. Next 3 try was good. He said a mechanic had to replace the battery because you had to reset the computer or it'll over charge the battery. Ty for this video.

Outstanding video. Thanks.

Great simple video thanks you.

@LeeParker-z8c says:

Excellent instruction. Took me 15 minutes. Saved a ton.

@jenfletcher2457 says:

So glad I found this! As a female I hate dealing with car stuff, but now, not only can I walk in and sound educated – I can do the work myself. Thank you so much.

@ShariceMeadows says:

@ThePatriot1776 says:

Thanks for the video

@manuanand2202 says:

Outstanding video, that, man. Wish I had looked for it , now too late , I paid $259 yesterday for a shop to replace my auxiliary battery.

@PingNg-f4m says:

Great video with concise technical descriptions in easy-to-follow laymen's terms and explanation. The important safety reminders and specific technical bolt and nuts torque spec values are much appreciated. Thanks, from a 41+ year automotive engineer worked for the very company which manufactured the subjected Jeep Compass.

@TaureanWalker-j8c says:

Your description of everything made it easy to change the auxiliary battery. I really appreciate it!

@MiGuy96 says:

GREAT JOB! Same thing for 2025 compass?

@Rad9000 says:

@JokaSwa99 says:

I arc’d something when moving the aux I think I might need to replace the relay tht sits ontop
Of it

@3mpty3mpty says:

Thank You, this wasn’t incredibly easy to follow up

@bobbybenn8275 says:

Thaks a million, you explained this very professional. I'm changing both batteries on this 2019 compass

@VernonBivins-p8y says:

Excellent presentation! I found this video easy to follow and I didn't have to keep rewinding because I didn't quite catch something.

@xsteel3292 says:

Thanks man! I know this is 3 years old but… Been told oh no, your 2019 Jeep Compass w/ Latitude trim DOES NOT have a 2nd battery. (I'm not a mechanic but can learn and have tools) So after viewing your video I went out to the car and your tip about the foam surround cover helped me find it. But sure enough I saw that foam and pulled it back and saw I have a Performance Parts Battery 200 CCA Group 400 as my secondary battery. And yes, I saw the main battery too, since I'm not a mechanic to others who wonder–ha. Even was told by a major used car dealer in my area, no, you don't have one. Was told some Jeep compass' don't have them. SMH. Thanks so much for this video, just so I now know. Now, will I replace them myself—on this car–probably not. So I did see and identify both. My main one is SUper Start Platinum AGM out of Azark Automotive Distribution. Thanks for your help again and hope this helps someone else with this model.

@alexmunoz14007 says:

Hell yeah dude.

@Chazman3000 says:

Do you have to reset the IBS? I swapped out the battery but now the stop start featured does not work even though it is lit up. Thank you.

@mickchildress3384 says:

Very well done video good job man

@TheSonicBoomHD says:

Thank you very much!! My dealership wanted to charge me $350 for this service and just got it done in 20 minutes by myself.

@fatimaruano7286 says:

I am a VERY artistic person therefore I have NO car knowledge and this video saved me!!! along with my father being on the phone with me explaining what a ratchet is and the tools haha, amazing amazing thank you so much!!!! 🙂

@markh7229 says:
