Model: Nissan Qashqai J11 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we see how to permanently disable the start & stop function on a Nissan Qashqai, and in general on all Nissan cars equipped with it. We open the hood and identify the start & stop sensor, which is located next to the engine block; the component is attached to the car chassis with a bracket, secured by a 10 screw; without disconnecting it, we place it in a position where it cannot be activated by pressure, and secure it to this housing with a cable tie, then we put back the 10 bolt, in case we need to reactivate the component.
