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.

    Worked as advertised on 2019 F150 King Ranch

    Posted by Nick on Jun 24th 2019

    I highly recommend this product if you don't like the auto start stop. It completely disables the auto start stop function.

    Auto stop/start eliminator

    Posted by Jerry on Jun 11th 2019

    Received on time. Plugged it into the OBD port. It blinked blue once to indicate it was ready to memorize setting. I pressed the on off switch on the truck to off. The module works flawless and when I start the truck the switch is in off setting every time.

    Hate no more

    Posted by joel cummings on Jun 7th 2019

    I hated the auto start stop on my 2018 f 150. Love the truck just not that feature. Not anymore-it is always off now thanks to this nifty device. Could not have been easier. Plug it in - turn off the feature. Off for good - I hope, unless for some strange reason I want to turn it on again. Great device. Thanks. Not cheap though.

    4D Tech Toggle Start/Stop

    Posted by Mike Stscura on Jun 3rd 2019

    After receiving the unit was skeptical it would work. After reading the directions and watching the video how to toggle the Start/Stop, dam if it didn’t work perfectly. Thank you for a outstanding product.

    4D Tech Elimintor

    Posted by Joseph Ferrara on May 4th 2019

    This product has been in service two weeks and has worked flawlessly. Super easy to install and well worth the price to avoid the inconvenience of pressing the Start/Stop override switch at every ignition. This feature is truly annoying and counter-productive to achieving desired results. Would have given 5 stars but has not been in service long enough to verify longevity.
