    How to Permanently disable auto start / stop

    Sorry for the question that's probably been answered.
    I did some searching and can't find any info.

    2017 Escape SE 2.0 AWD.
    I don't really want to get involved in tuning, I just want the easiest, cheapest way to
    Permanently disable auto start / stop.

    (I really don't want to take the dash apart' to 'jump the connectors').


    Suggestions?

    This vehicle isn't supported yet, so there is literally nothing you can do with HP with it yet. I have one, patiently waiting.

    Jumping the start/stop disable connectors also will not fix your issue, it's a momentary switch that resets each time you start the vehicle..3

    Brake, steering, gas pedal, coolant temp, and HVAC are also all sensors that you cant just jump out to keep it running.

    For now, you have to run in sport mode or press the button if you don't like it.

    The switch to disable it is in the vehicles we support. This vehicle will be added soon.
