Turn off Auto Start/Stop Permanently
Has anyone come up w/ a way to shut off the auto start/stop permanently on 2024 Sport? I used Forscan to turn if off on my F150 but I'm reading that doesn't work w/ 23 and up Sports on other forums. I see the ones that plug in-line w/ the OBDII port, they look ok just hate to spend $100 if there's a cheaper option. Before anyone says just use the button, this is my wife's vehicle and she never remembers to shut it off. Had the same thing on her old Jeep Cherokee and I went through pretty close to a battery a year thanks to that damn thing and it can't be good for the engine to start and stop that much. I'm not putting up w/ it on the Baby Bronco.

Just ordered one of these for the wife's new Bronco Sport, https://www.4dtech.com/bronco-sport-...op-eliminator/ seems pricy for what you get, but I see no other alternatives. I’ll report back once I receive it, and get it installed.

Thanks in advance!
7/11/25 Update: I tried the nightlight suggestion. I plugged it into the receptacle on the back of the console and it worked great!
