Abstract: The invention relates to a method of controlling the stopping and starting of a heat engine (2) of a vehicle. The invention is of the type in which (i) it is necessary for the vehicle to be in an engine stop request phase, and not in pre-defined operating conditions that oppose the stopping of the engine (2), in order for the engine (2) to be stopped or (ii) it is necessary for the vehicle to be in an engine start request phase, and not in pre-defined operating conditions that oppose the starting of the engine (2), in order for the engine to be started. The invention is characterized in that the vehicle operating conditions that oppose the stopping of the engine (2) comprise slow congested traffic conditions constituting specific identification criteria.

Abstract: A method of controlling the stopping and staffing of a heat engine (2) of a vehicle is such that (i) it is necessary for the vehicle to be in an engine stop request phase, and not in pre-defined operating conditions that oppose the stopping of the engine (2), in order for the engine (2) to be stopped or (ii) it is necessary for the vehicle to be in an engine staff request phase, and not in pre-defined operating conditions that oppose the staffing of the engine (2), in order for the engine to be started. For a given engine stop request phase, the engine (2) can only be stopped or staffed at most a pre-determined number of times.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of controlling the operation of an electrical machine forming the starter (8) of a heat engine (2) and of electrical equipment (13). According to the invention, the starter and the electrical equipment are powered by the same power source (9) with which the operation of the starter (8) and the operation of the electrical equipment (13) are controlled respectively after an operation request phase has been identified and provided that no pre-determined conditions oppose same. The invention is characterised in that the operation of the starter (8) constitutes a condition which opposes the simultaneous operation of the equipment (13).

The invention is characterised in that the vehicle operating conditions which oppose the stopping of the engine (2) comprise vehicle parking manoeuvres constituting specific identification criteria which use information relating to the operation of the steering mechanism with which the driver steers the vehicle.
