Product details

Your preferred setting, every drive

The 4D Tech Start / Stop Eliminator remembers your Auto Start / Stop setting and restores it when you start your F-150. Choose OFF to keep the engine running at stops, or choose ON to use the factory system. Your dashboard button continues to work normally, and remote start is retained.

Leave the device plugged in. It operates through the diagnostic port while installed; it does not make programming changes to your truck.

Check your fitment

Fits 2015–2020 Ford F-150, including all trim levels and Raptor equipped with factory Auto Start / Stop. Match your model year before ordering.

Plug into the diagnostic port

No tools or trim removal are required. Watch the complete installation video.

Start / Stop Eliminator plugs into the diagnostic port below the F-150 steering wheel
  1. Locate the diagnostic port. Find it below the steering wheel, as shown above and in the video.
  2. Plug in the device. Seat it securely in the port. The video shows a brief blue light when a connection is established.
  3. Choose your setting. Start the truck and use the factory Start / Stop button to select ON or OFF.
  4. Leave it connected. The device remembers your selection between drives while it remains plugged in.

Removing the device restores normal factory operation. A paper quick-start guide is included. Contact our support team if you need help.

Does it need to stay plugged in?

Yes. This is a leave-in memory device, not a programmer that you unplug after installation. It occupies the diagnostic port while in use. Remove it when the port is needed for vehicle diagnostics, then reconnect it afterward.

    Auto Stop/Start Eliminator

    Posted by Randy Nickels on Jul 9th 2020

    It worked as described. Van Opener went blue during the process and went green at the end. As I drive the motor continues to run when I am at a full stop. Thank you

    I wish I would’ve bought this product on day one of getting my truck. I cannot believe it took me three years of pushing that button to get this product. Do yourself a favor and buy this product.

    This product truly is plug and play. You just plug it in to OBD two and forget about it.
