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.
- Locate the diagnostic port. Find it below the steering wheel, as shown above and in the video.
- Plug in the device. Seat it securely in the port. The video shows a brief blue light when a connection is established.
- Choose your setting. Start the truck and use the factory Start / Stop button to select ON or OFF.
- 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.

Good Product
Device was a little more difficult to plug in than it shows on the video, but that appears to be because my port is located further back under the dash and the little lip on the Eliminator rubs on the underside of the dash, but once it was plugged it it works as designed and I love it.

AUTO START / STOP ELIMINATOR
Works perfectly to the point where you just don’t know it’s there. All City driving for both trucks and we have had zero impact on our MPG. The transaction went smooth and shipping was fast.

Perfect Solution
I manage a diverse medium sized private fleet of 50% Ford / 50% GM. I see all the new tricks they use for economy. In my opinion only, I don't trust the auto start/stop feature. This device delivers just as promised. It's very simple to use and I recommend to anyone wanting to defeat the auto start/stop function on their vehicle without compromising anything else.

Start/Stop Eliminator
Device works perfectly the first time and every time. Plug and play. Well worth the price. I can't imagine why Ford's Start/Stop idea is a desirable feature on any vehicle unless it spends its life moving from one stop light to another in city traffic. Definitely not one of Ford's 'better ideas'.
