As someone who uses his parking brake ALL THE TIME, this is awesome.

Finally !!!
A basic feature that is missing.

I like this idea, but it appears that it plugs into the same module in the same way as my stop/start eliminator (4DTech). I doubt I can have two modules plugged into the same port and I'm not going to part with my stop/start eliminator, at least for now.

I just got my RA Ranger auto-trigger module on Thursday and I have the 4DTech auto start/stop eliminator.

I can confirm that they DO work together and haven't had any issues so far.

You can plug them in together to each other. I left the 4D eliminator plugged in, unhooked the truck's wire harness from it, plugged the RA Ranger handbrake trigger into the 4D connector then plugged the other end of the RA Ranger module into the truck's harness.

Truck started up with no errors and the auto start/stop is still disabled and the RA Ranger works as advertised.

Hold up, you might want to email RA Ranger to check if it will work with a U.S. spec Ranger.

Several of us in late-2025 early 2026, got boards that didn’t work, allegedly because Ford made some hard/software changes.

This was their response to my email - I brought up the differences in braking systems and control modules between the 2024 and 2025 MY.

It sounds like they shipped a bunch of boards to 2025 owners, had an “oh shit moment” when they realized the issue was with trucks and not a bad batch of boards, and were stalling as they tried to find a solution.

Thought it was interesting that they said only American (and I assume Canadian) vehicles are affected.
