How to Permanently Disable Start & Stop on the Peugeot 208

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Instrument cluster

This video shows how to permanently disable the Start & Stop function on the Peugeot 208. By disabling it via the button, every time you switch off and restart the vehicle, you have to decide whether to keep this function active or disable it. This video teaches you how to eliminate it completely, even though it is a somewhat unnecessary practice. On the left side of the dashboard, there is a temporary deactivation button. If you remove the cover, you can create a bridge with an electrical wire (a telephone wire of the same gauge will also work) from the grey wire to the green/yellow wire, bending it back on itself to fit it into the connector. This way, the button will be permanently disabled.
