BODENLA Auto Start-Stop Delete for Honda CR-V 2017–2022 (Non-Hybrid) — Plug-and-Play, Reversible Module

BODENLA Auto Start Stop Delete for Honda CR-V 2017–2022 permanently sets your vehicle to keep the engine running by default, removing the need to re-disable the automatic stop/start every time you drive.

Many CR-V owners find the factory auto stop/start feature inconvenient in daily driving. This compact plug-and-play module is designed specifically for non-hybrid Honda CR-Vs from model years 2017 through 2022 and restores continuous engine operation while preserving factory controls. Installation is reversible and comes with a simple disassembly tool plus an installation video to guide you step-by-step.

How does the BODENLA eliminator stop the auto-off behavior?

The module intercepts the vehicle signal that commands the engine to shut off at idle, forcing the system to default to keeping the engine on after a restart. It does not require permanent wiring changes and is intended to work with the CR-V’s existing switch and electronics.

• Plugs into original connector locations without cutting factory wires
• Sets default state so A-OFF remains active after ignition cycles
• Reversible: remove the module to restore stock behavior
• Comes with disassembly tool and step-by-step installation video

Will this work on my CR-V model and drivetrain?

The BODENLA start/stop eliminator is compatible with Honda CR-V model years 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 — but only for non-hybrid variants. It was made to match the electrical interfaces used in those gasoline-only models.

• Compatible: CR-V / CRV 2017–2022 gasoline models
• Not compatible: hybrid CR-V versions
• Verify vehicle year and engine type before purchase
• Simple plug-in fitment specific to these model years’ connectors

How difficult is installation and what tools are included?

Installation is designed for a straightforward, owner-friendly procedure. BODENLA includes a small disassembly tool to access the connector and provides a video walkthrough so most users can install the unit in minutes without professional help.

• Includes 1 start/stop disable eliminator and 1 disassembly tool
• Video instructions attached for clear step-by-step guidance
• No soldering or permanent modifications required
• Restart vehicle after installation to activate default "stay-on" state

What happens if I want the auto start/stop back temporarily?

The original A-OFF switch remains functional after installation. Pressing the A-OFF button will re-enable the factory auto start/stop behavior when you want it, and removing the module returns the car to stock operation.

• Use the A-OFF button to reactivate auto start/stop temporarily
• Module removal restores factory default behavior entirely
• No changes to dash indicators or switch functions required
• Designed to be non-destructive and reversible

Who is this for: The BODENLA Auto Start Stop Delete is aimed at Honda CR-V owners (2017–2022 gasoline models) who prefer consistent engine idle behavior — commuters, drivers in stop-and-go traffic, or anyone who finds repeated manual disabling of the start/stop feature inconvenient. It’s not suitable for hybrid CR-Vs and is best for drivers who want a reversible, plug-in solution with clear installation support.
