    Super simple 2 minute install. Makes the annoying start/stop a thing of the past! Best product ever.

    FORD ESCAPE (20-22') START / STOP ELIMINATOR

    Posted by J.J. Edwards on May 11th 2022

    Not easy to install on a 2022 Escape due to the placement of the ODBC plug against the side wall. There is very little room to grasp the connector, press the release, and disconnect the harness.

    WORKS GREAT

    It was a fairly easy install. I had to remove 4 screws and move a panel. Then I disconnected the plug from the back of the OSB socket, plugged in the START / STOP ELIMINATOR to it and the plug I had disconnected. Turned on the car and it worked fin

    Works exactly as advertised. If the START / STOP is annoying (and whose isn't!), then this is a great devise and I recommend it.

    Eliminator

    Posted by Len Bowen on Jun 29th 2021

    Have had installed for about 2 weeks. Works as advertised. A bit more difficult to install than video shows. On the 2021 car the connection is held in place with two bolt/nuts. The nuts have to be removed in order to drop the connection down and get to the switch out. Bit of a problem, but managed.

    Escape Start / Stop Eliminator

    Posted by Jimmy V on Jun 21st 2021

    As advertised, this product does exactly what it claims by preventing the need to press the auto-shutoff button in the car every time it's started. My only issue was that it was too difficult for me to disconnect the factory plug in order to install the eliminator. However, there are 2 nuts that can be removed (10mm), and the plugs drops down and the plug can be removed.

    Stop / Start eliminator feedback.

    Thank You .. you created a product that is easy to install has great quality and a fair price. This feature the Auto Makers installed is totally ridiculous. It does nothing but put extra wear and tear on your vehicle. This product is perfect to eliminate this feature.. however if for some reason you want to use it… just push the button and it’s back. I give this product 5 ***** for its effectiveness, easy to install at a fair price. If you want to eliminate this feature this is the product to do it. “Highly Recommend”
