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.

    Start / Stop Eliminator

    Posted by Peter Hodson on Aug 30th 2021

    I purchased and installed the 4DTech Start Stop Eliminator recently. The installation was simple and the results were instant. No more bothersome truck motor stops. I purchased this product because my start went at 53,000 miles. The Ford service manager didn't have any idea why it failed so early. He guessed I have bad luck (Seriously?) I guess it is because my truck used to turn off the motor at every stop and then start it again. The code told me the charging system was broken and to bring it to the Ford Dealer. $600 later I had a new starter. Not acceptable. IMO the starter should have been redesigned to survive this fuel saving feature not to mention I am sure it is not good for the motor to constantly start and stop. Finally, it is very annoying not being able to turn this feature off through Ford vehicle settings. Thanks to 4DTech for adding this feature and extending the life of my vehicle!
