Are you driving with the MaxAc on? If so, ESS will never turn on.I have had this same problem for the last two days. But my screen just says start/stop not ready” nothing else. And the start stop function doesn’t work when I drive it. Doesn’t matter if the start stop button is on or off
Hi Capricorn,I bought my JL Unlimited on Friday evening - 2 nights ago.
As I was driving to take it home and hit 4 or 5 stop lights, the orange A! sign came up with a chime. I didn;t give enough notice to it but on Saturday when I started it, it was gone. Then again it came up and keeps coming up - and the reason was battery in protection mode. I am going to take it to the dealer on Tuesday.
I am wondering too if it is a battery issue - that the Aux battery may not be getting charged enough? The orange A! light comes up when the light turns green and I take the foot off the brake. And it remains on till I restart it again.

I've gotten this screen a couple times..anyone else have this issue? I used a multimeter to check the battery with the vehicle off and am showing 12.73 volts. Was hoping someone had some info before I take it to the dealer. Thanks!
Hi xpsruler,Got a message today saying to service stop/start as well as stability control now with error lights.
I had the same problem - a micro relay needs to be replaced. It is a 5 minute job to fix it but the part has to be ordered and has an ETA of about 7 days. Costs about $10.65. I am thinking it is a communication error between the ESS and the computer.Got a message today saying to service stop/start as well as stability control now with error lights.
