Tired of pushing the Auto Star-Stop button every time you start your vehicle. I was in my F-150 and my Bronco. The Forscan options just trick the computer in some way, but this solution from 4D Tech, just memorizes the last position of the switch and automatically turns it off for you. Just like you pushing the button every time you start your vehicle. A much better solution IMO.

For my older F-150 Forscan would trick the battery charging system into thinking it was too low to turn off the vehicle or something like that. This actually turned off smart charging from what I read, which did not sound good.
For the new Bronco, the Forscan option just tricked the computer into thinking the wheel was turned too far for Auto Stop to activate. This did not seem like an ideal long term solution.
Just having a device that pushed the button for me every time the vehicle starts seemed like the best option. For the older F-150 the 4D Tech solution just plugs into the OBD2 port. For the newer Bronco and many other newer vehicles you do need to pull the dash panel and actually wired the solution in behind. On the Bronco it took me about 20 minutes to install the 4D Tech Auto Start-Stop Eliminator. Well worth the time for me.
I hope this video is helpful.
Just to be clear, we are not sponsored and we paid full retail for these parts. Just sharing what we are actually doing on our Bronco.
Thanks for watching Bad To The Stone
