Or you could've just plugged in a night light into the 110v and saved yourself $96.00. ;)

I used a nightlight for a few months. Blacked it out with some electrical tape and left a thin band so I could see it was on. It worked great until the light burnt out. The 4D Tech solution is simple and it works.

Yes, you can buy a bunch of nightlights for $100.

Yes, you can press the button every start.

And cue the "do it in Forscan" post...

That just stops the engine from shutting off after (45min)* when idling! * May be longer, but I think that's the timing.

Get LED version and the "bulb" won't burn out!

Make sure you don't get one that has a Light Sensor. Those only turn off at night or when it's dark, so it won't work on your Ranger when there's light hitting it.

You could also just unclip the plug connected to the battery for free.

We can also disable the auto start stop via our Mycalibrator custom tuning device as well. There's a ton more improvements to be had from our tuning of course, but eliminating the S/S and skip shifting are two added benefits along with some additional power and slight increase in fuel mileage typically as well.

im petitioning the government to make it illegal to disable this....you're all going to jail for environmental destruction.
Im an emissions specialist. Imagine the reaction I received when I told the engineers that I disabled this nonsense.
