So has anyone figured out how to permanently disable the auto start/stop feature with their Bronco? This feature is so annoying and is really unnecessary.

I purchased and installed this to disable the auto start/stop feature on the Bronco. Works flawlessly! https://www.autostopeliminator.com/...o-autostop-eliminator#shopify-product-reviews

Yes plenty of ways
This is the only reliable way w '24 and '23 Broncos. I installed this in both our '23 and '22. Work perfectly in both

Until ProCal gets approved - the external devices like AutoStop linked above are the most reliable way. I don’t know if it’s working on Fordscan with the ‘24s or not - it was hit or miss on the ‘23s.

yes.
But why?
But why?
A) It's not annoying, it's barely even noticeable
B) It is, in fact, necessary for today's emission/economy standards. Manufacturers wouldn't spend the money to implement it if they didn't need to
C) There are numerous ways to disable it which have been beat to absolute death on this forum and internet wide

I tried several things including forscan and was never able to turn it off. As far as it being barely noticeable.... so is a mosquito...It IS really annoying and I'm sure will cause unnecessary wear and tear in the long run. I finally went for the eliminator posted above and problem solved. Most of the programmers available will turn it off as well.

Nothing else to say, just do it.

Use the Sport G.O.A.T. mode, it automatically disables A.S.S.
Mine has been disabled with the start/stop eliminator since 300 miles. Just crossed 22K. No issues running it and it’s always on.
I too hate auto stop/start. Unnecessary EPA BS.

I agree it sounds annoying but I have yet to see any proof of the later.
For those with the tow package you can get a cheap trailer connect plug kit (or an old left over). Use the flat plug in your receiver connector and voila' no ass. Apparently if you're towing it's disabled.
