    2019 Transit Connect

    Posted by Mark Faul on Sep 14th 2026

    Installed the auto start-stop eliminator in the used 2019 Ford Transit Connect I just bought. Easy install, and eliminated the annoying auto stop feature that many vehicles come together now. I’d rather pay an extra few bucks a month for gas than replace a starter due to overuse.

    Start/Stop Eliminator

    Love it. Nice not to have to hit Start/Stop button every time. I find myself looking to see if I turned off. No issues installing. Plug and Play.

    It works!

    Posted by Thomas Winegard on Sep 8th 2025

    I always forget to push that stupid button to turn of the auto start/stop. I always think my transmission is slipping when it activates, but not anymore! Installed this in under 5 minutes and now the button defaults to off! Worth every penny and it saves me frustration. Whoever invented the start/stop technology... I hope that there is never a bathroom nearby when you need one.

    2022 Transit Connect

    Posted by John Rohr on Feb 18th 2025

    Works perfectly and was an absolute ease to install on my 2022 Transit Connect. Forscan software couldn't help me. This worked.

    That's it?

    When I was done installing this, I blurted out "That's it?" Very straightforward install and solves a very frustrating problem for me as a new Transit Connect owner. Great product!

    Star/Stop Eliminator

    Installation took less than 5 minutes, eliminated those hybrid engine cut-outs at stop signs. So annoying and destructive on the starter. Thank You

    Works exactly as advertised

    Posted by Doug on Jul 26th 2023

    I put this on, inline with a Start-X remote start. Both units work perfectly. Simple install, and the display tells me the auto-stop is disabled instantly on startup. 5* for the product and tech support which I contacted to verify this would work with the ODB remote start unit.

    Now back to normal driving and keeping my sanity!

    This option should be on every vehicle that has the stupid startstop BS on it. Tip: for some vehicles (including 2023 Ford Transit Connect) you will first need to unscrew the 2 bolts that hold the OBD2 module to the chassis to be able to gain access and disconnect the plug and install this device.
