This is a pretty simple thing to do in a half hour with no tools required, just some patience and maybe a helper with tiny hands if you have someone like that. I bought this from 4DTech.com... here is the link.

    You found a better one!!! The one in Thailand / Australia is wired to the actual button and installation is less clean. Great find! šŸŽ‰
  • @ChasVS391
    Thanks for showing the struggle! It took me several tries to get it unclipped! If you had made it look easy I may have given up! But itā€™s in and to be tested shortly!
  • @thewatcher5726
    The struggle is very real and you never edit it out lolā€¦ Trust me someone will thank you later for thisā€¦

    Thank you for sharing. Now its just hurry up and wait. My Raptor was built yesterday, supposedly. But I was told it would be a few weeks before the dealer gets it.

    Great information! Picked up my 2024 Ranger Lariat FX4 a week ago and many of your tips apply to the Lariat. The hesitation when accelerating from a stop when the auto start/stop is actvated drives me crazy. Your install video will be super helpful when I do my install. Thank you.

    Hopefully you have better luck than me, my raptor Cam phasers are toast at 1200 miles.

    Lucky Dog. LOL Very nice. I ordered the same one on Wednesday, but mine has not shown up yet. Thanks for the excellent how too video! The bad thing was I had already bought a similar device from Australia, a month or so ago. But that one you have to tear the whole center console apart to install it, So, when I saw this one on the Ranger Forum this week, it looked a lot more like how my Bronco S/S eliminator installed behind the glove box quick and easy. So I ordered it as well. At the moment since I have not had a chance to fix my dead R button with your battery reboot trick, I am really wishing I had this eliminator installed. You ran the same test I was curious about, excellent. very nice.
  • On my 2020 Ranger XLT, I simply removed the small 2 wire molex connector from the negative terminal of the battery. No other side effects. Have to wait for my 2024 Lariot to arrive to see if there are any similarities.No 24's around here to look at yet.

    thanks for sharing. unfortunately shipping for US and Canada only, leaves us in Europe stuck to disable it after each start.

    Have you looked at remote start key fobs? You solved my number one pet peeve with this car (auto stop), the other one is not being able to start it remotely in Dubaiā€™s hot summers!!
  • @AdamReidBSc
    Morning! You showed me how to set-up the prevention of auto start-stop using the R button config which works a treat! (Awesome). Are you using this just to apply the setting across all possible profiles?
  • Will that effect any part of the warranty if an issue arises for some reason ? Nice video
  • @joejr9653
    I'll set mine to dark mode now too. I don't think I'll get the auto start stop eliminator. I always push my R setting button when I drive which is set to shut it off.
  • @BulteauJerome
    Great! I have been looking for this for quite some time. Have you tried it when you remote start it (with the app or the key fob)? Does it stay disabled? The one sold in Australia canā€™t bypass the remote start so it goes back on automatically. What about this one? Thanks!!
  • What is the maker of said product or what was the website you were on. Looking to purchase one for myself. Great video!
  • Unhooked mine on my 2017 ford fusion it was on the battery only reason that they put that on vehicles is to were out the starter
