    Start / Stop Eliminator 26 Explorer ST

    Posted by Steven Dudleson on Apr 27th 2026

    I have 3 Fords all running the 4D Tech Start / Stop Eliminator. I just acquired the 26 Explorer, this was the easiest installation I’ve done. I go through a lot of vehicles and I use 4D Tech product exclusively, they always work as advertised, never a failure! Service is also great, product arrives promptly after order. Highly recommended!

    Start/stop eliminator for ‘26 Explorer ST

    Posted by Stuart Reynolds on Apr 26th 2026

    Thank you for this! I got my new Explorer ST a few weeks ago and it was driving me crazy, shutting down pretty much every time I came to a stop. The Eliminator took 5 minutes to install and it works perfectly! Plus it saves my motor, starter and battery from costly repairs or replacement later on.

    Awesome Product

    Posted by Doug P on Apr 2nd 2026

    Extremely easy to install and works as described. On quality.. if I didn't know I installed it - the wiring, connectors, wire covering, etc look OEM quality or better. They are also fast on emails if you have questions - so customer service is also good.

    This is my second S/S Eliminator from them. Worked on my previous Hyundai for over a year - without issue.. in gulf coast heat. (still working; whoever bought it used has it now)

    Love it!

    Posted by DM on Mar 31st 2026

    Super easy to install - my last vehicle required removing the center console.. this took seconds on the Explorer. I was sad to hear software based solutions were unable shut down auto stop/start on a 2025 - BUT.. even if it could - with this button pushing mimic harness, no worries about "is my Battery Management System (BMS) still running?".

    Customer support is awesome. Feedback was measured in hours (if that) vs days when I had questions/etc.

    This was very to install and works as described. I am glad I don't have to push a button every time now.
