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 Start/Stop Eliminator

    Bought this for my 2019 Ford Raptor because I was totally annoyed by the engine shutting down every time I stopped. Simple Plug & Play install. Works as advertised.

    Auto Start / Stop Eliminator ( F-150 )

    Posted by Richard Peresh on Sep 11th 2019

    I purchased this device and received it in a few days by mail. It took only a few minutes to deactivate the Auto start / stop feature in my 2016 F150. Something I wanted to do after the first month I had my truck. 2 years ago. I'm very pleased with this gadget. I even bought a second one for my brother's F150.

    Great product

    Posted by Ron on Aug 21st 2019

    I used to just pull the plug under the dash on the trailer lights that would disable the auto start/stop but I tow with my F150 too much to have to keep getting up under the dash to turn back on my trailer lights. This product is perfect, I gladly paid $100 for the convenience this memorizer provided.

    Stop/start eliminator

    Posted by Bud on Aug 14th 2019

    I’ve had the truck 2 years and still haven’t gotten used to the auto stop/start! I question the additional wear on the starter, concern about when and where it’s going to die vs fuel saving/environmental impact. Easy to install.
