Default Auto Start-Stop System

New to site. Can I disable the Auto Start-Stop on my 2025 Ford F150 XLT? I realize I can disable it each time however it is annoying. Thx

Put the 4D on my wife's 25 Explorer and my 21 Platinum, very, very happy! Easy install and you can still use the function of A.S.S if you like. I found them on ebay offering a discount for 2.

The Forscan software can be used to disable it.

Don’t do it this way. It also disables the BMS.

I never had to do it since none of my vehicles had stop start system but I seriously don't think it would disable the Battery Monitoring System.
