Hi everyone.

Is there already an effective way to get rid of start-stop in Focus mk4.5 1.0 mhev?

Yes, injecting CAN messages. I was doing this in MK4, in MK4.5 same story. Just need to find someone with mk4.5 to verify messaging.

Have you tried turning it off in the PSCM (with Forscan)?
This works on Escape 2020 and similar. I know it was done in some other way before, I am not sure if Focus MK4 has some more requirements for this.
The PSCM change effectively makes it constantly send steering wheel movement events, which prevents stopping the engine.

I turned off all possible modules in Forscan and still no effect, the car turns off.
