Your battery may be wearing out, if I understand correctly the PCX has a system to avoid using stop start, if the battery is not charging 100%.

Only the new version has that intelligent feature, the 2011 model will let the battery die.
Make sure the handlebar switch is in the correct position and check the seat switch.

When you say stopped working, do you mean your bike does start and ride ok but the idle-stop function does not kick in as usual - or you just have problems starting?

Well, on the bright side - that is the best thing of the two options - better that the bike does work. Hmm, as the slightest tough should start the bike with idle stop engaged, I wonder if the accelerator cable / idle is too tight / too high? Not sure if that is part of how it works.

Also check for the temp sensor, the system doesn't work while engine is cold.The diagnostic tool should show why.
