After disconnecting my battery for an hour, Due to 2 faults, (The Blue me fault and reverse sensor stuck on), the latter is sorted now, Blue me Fault still present, The Stop Start does not work, not sure that this is the reason, as we had the first major downpour of rain inbetween, The car was bought from a main dealer in April, So just out of Warranty. So now it has 2 faults on the car, Nothing has been checked as the problem started only yesterday, regarding the start stop, it has always worked fine until the above, As had the blue me, Which there is no response from at all, other than power going to the blue me USB socket, It appears all 3 faults have occured together, the car is a 61 plate and has been well looked after, with a few new parts supplied by the main dealer before purchase. kind regards Vinny

Check your main battery voltage, both with engine running and also off
Report back with both
The Blue and me not working is a known problem, there's someone on here that will repair it for you.

When running is fine
A bit low when not running, can you give one more (not running) reading after it's been off for 30 minutes

It had been off all day and last night

It's how close it was to the just running test that's key, if that was before your running test then that's fine.
After running it takes a while for the battery to return to it's standing steady state voltage and can give a false impression of terminal voltage.
The car has not been used. since this time yesterday and the voltage test was done before I turned the car over. When you asked for the readings.

Thanks for confirming 
It's Typecastboy on here that can repair the blue and me , I'd disconnect it for now cos it's known to drain the battery when faulty.

Any idea where the Blue me module is ? And the car runs really well. Just the 3 faults as listed. One which was sorted on disconnection of the battery, which, in theory could have corrected all 3 faults. Theory being the optimistic word. Under the bonnet you can see how well it has been kept, by looking at it, there seems to be a lot of new parts added by the main dealer, which is why I paid double the price of it's book price. I hate the start stop function on these cars, but I was told." You can tell a car is running correctly, when this works," by a mechanic, So i just thought it would be an idea to ask on here.kind regards VinnyThanks for confirming

This is the location of the Blue & Me ECU | FIAT 500 (2007+)
Just came across this picture of my current car that I'm having all this trouble with the TPS. When I changed the interior I took a few photos. There has been questions in the past about the Blue & Me/Stereo ECU. I believe this is it behind the rear nearside panel underneath the speaker...
