Drove 50 miles yesterday and noticed my i stop not working.
The engine temperature light never came on at all.
Any ideas?

Thanks

The AC icon would then be the problem, not the engine light.

OK, I'm probably not fully understanding your problem.
All I can say is that when my I-stop fails it's because the car is pulling too much voltage. Switching off the fan solves this.

Have a look at the details contained in the owners manual regarding the necessary conditions required for the I-Stop to function, see this link below which is the CX-3 web owners manual explanation.

^ do that lol.

I've only had my cx-3 for a few months. The iStop is the most finicky thing in it. The engine bit used to be an issue for me, but I realised this can happen if you are stopped on an incline, your engine is slightly too hot or cold - but not enough to trip the overheat sensor etc. So I just gave up. It works most of the time, but if it doesn't I pay no attention to it :p
