Default Auto Stop Eliminator

Hi folks,

I stumbled on this:
.

It is a mind bogglingly simple solution. Has anyone tried it? If so, thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

First time I've heard of that solution, but I'm wondering how often that thing would pop off once that two sided tape ages. We can also disable the auto start stop systems through custom performance tuning using the Mycalibrator tuning devices in case anyone wasn't already aware. The new Mycalibrator Touch tuning devices offers datalogging, can display up to 6 different gauges at once, can read / clear DTCs, holds north of 10+ custom tunes plus stock, and also has a tire size and gear ratio adjustment option for the 2015+ F-150s as well. We offer perforancr and towing specific tunes for 87, 89, 91, and 93 octane plus can do optional tunes for things like race gas or E85 / Flex fuel where available (addtional modifications may be required for E85 / Flex fuel tunesdpending on the specific vehicle). So if anyone is looking to improve their trucks performance, effiencey, and also disable the auto start stop systems we've got you covered.

Here is a link to the Mycalibrator Touch tuning devices on our website for more info or to place an order as well.

Looks like a nice solution but doesn't support the 3.5EB.

Is there a link for this one?

My bad - I saw the link once I followed to youtube.

Follow up - the link to buy it on Amazon says it's out of stock, no eta. No other link to the company I can find.

Thanks. I have seen that one and a few others, plus the autostop eliminator thing. I am still not convinced it's worth $99 or more to deal with this issues, lol.

This cost me maybe 15 cents....

This is the end of a zip tie stuck in there to disable the auto start stop (***). No muss no fuss.

I hear you! I will probably end up with the autostop eliminator thing, in case I somehow get the wild hair to start using that feature again. Other thing I am wondering - haven't checked the Forscan threads, but since this is a programmable feature, I am guessing you could disable in using that program. Anyone know?
