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.

    Good Product

    Posted by Tom K. on Aug 12th 2019

    The Start/Stop Eliminator works perfectly as advertised. The only suggestion I have is to either make it shorter in depth so You can't see it, or include a 90 degree OBD2 extender so the Eliminator can be tucked out of sight. The competing product on the market requires opening up the dash, which is why I chose this product - just plug it in and that's it.

    Start/Stop Eliminator 2017 F150 with 3.5L Ecoboost

    Posted by Jack F on Jul 15th 2019

    Product shipped in a timely manner. Received in good shape. Easy install, seems to work as advertised. I've only had it for about a week. Can't give a recommendation for it because I haven't had it long enough to properly evaluate it. Only writing this review now because the company sent me an email bugging me for one. I only gave it four stars because to me it is a bit over priced, I guess shame on me for buying it. At least for now it is working as advertised.

    Start/Stop Eliminator

    Posted by Bob Tetrault on Jul 3rd 2019

    This product works as described. When I ordered it the device arrived within 5 business days. Very fast service. I plugged in the unit into my obdII connection, unit turned on Blue and started up my 2018 F-150. Hit start/stop button to turn off system and the Eliminator has remember to turn off start/stop every time I start my truck. Great Devise and recommend it to all my F-150 family and friends owners. Buy it well worth the price.
