I present the Auto Start/Stop Temporary fix

[Blackwolf]

I don't think you can. I opened up that central console with the idea that I'll mount my bass control knob next to the volume knob. The entire back of that panel is a printed circuit board with the buttons soldered onto it. Can't easily add, remove or modify anything there.

If anything this should have been individual buttons, I would have loved for this to be more modular.

In which case it should be easy enough to solder a jumper onto the PCB that has the effect of shorting out the stop/start switch and permanently disabling SS.

Has anyone tried this one? I will never use the auto start/stop. Ever.

Nice this is way better than that stupid button clicker for $70

Agreed, if and when I ever pull my center dash I will add a jumper if it makes since. Would be nice to cut the trace and do it back in the board some. That way you could repurpose the switch.

Keep in mind the button must be pressed again when disabling off-road mode unless you shut the car off. The button being held down (or circuit closed) works great except for that one case, so it's nice to maintain access to a functioning switch.
