"Smart Cruise Control (SCC) conditions not met"

This was a problem with my '19 when new. I stopped it when I realised that the Kona seems to be set up to expect regular use of the brake pedal in normal driving (no SCC) to check the brakes are working OK. I was using level 3 regen and no brake pedal for long distances, then it wouldn't reengage SCC if paused/stopped.
I switched to level 1 regen + autoregen so I used the brake lightly a lot more, and the problem went away - not seen again.

 

I had this happen a few times. I discovered all I had to do was tap the breaks, then I could set Cruise Control.. I always run GEN-3.

 

The OP has already said that doesn’t solve his problem, and it also wastes energy and worsens economy..

 

This happens to my Kona (2021 Ultimate) whenever I go longish periods without using the brakes, regardless of weather conditions. Tapping the brakes works for me every time. It's annoying to have to do that, though, especially on the highway, so I try to think to use the brakes for slowdown before I enter the highway.

 

Was just driving my car and the car lurched and stopped accelerating, "Cruise Control Conditions No Met" message came on and then every warning light lit up. The motor powered down and the car basically stopped in a live lane. Gravity kept it creeping forward until I could get off the road. Turned off and on. Didn't fix anything. Disconnected battery and reconnected. Seemed to fix things. Started, drove stopped, started again. No issues. Drove 3km and then it all happened again. Dash fireworks, no power. Pulled over. Redid the whole 12 volt riggamarole, started up fine, drove 2 km back, it happened again as I was making a left turn across live traffic lanes. By this time I was thoroughly frustrated and tromped on the accelerator, the car lurched and jumped, loosing all motor power then accelerating. I managed to get into my driveway a kilometre away. Waiting now for the tow truck to take it to my dealer 45km away. They can't even look at it until next week! Well, I had a couple of hundred kilometres of quiet driving with my nice new drive train before it became crippled again. I guess I shouldn't have been so upbeat.

 

Yup, same car, same issue. It does mention it briefly in the manual but what I've learned is if you haven't touch the brake (often happens if you're in 3rd level regen/one pedal) or if you just haven't altered speed much in the past 5-10 minutes you'll get this message when you try to engage the cruise control.

If it does that now I've gotten into the habit of momentarily lifting my foot off the gas pedal. That's all it needs to be able to engage.

 

Here's the dash.

 

Sounds like the 12 volt might be the common denominator, maybe a new one would make the difference? Good luck, keep us posted.

 

I did let my home dealership know that the car was just ripped apart and rebuilt last week so they could consider if something perhaps wasn't reconnected as well as it should have been. I'm really hoping the car threw a code that can point them in the right direction. I was a bit dismayed that Blue link health status reported as "All Systems Normal" while my dash was lit up.

 

Yep .. this is how mine behaves as well. Doesn't happen that often, fortunately.

Turns out the dashboard light show and erratic power situation were caused by a faulty accelerator pedal assembly. It's on backorder (of course) and I'm now being offered a rental car for the duration. I hate gas cars, period, but having to pay for gas these days is an additional annoyance.

 

You'd think at some point I would have uncovered all of the obscure, faulty bits, wouldn't you?

 

Uggh, this gives me unpleasant flashbacks to my Kona experience. I can completely empathize. I hope they sort this out for you quickly.
