I unplugged the right switch as your sitting in the jeep which is what killed the back up camera. So i quest i unplugged the wrong one.Thanks for the info, I tried this today and works with no issues whatsoever. Remote start works as well as backup camera, only downside is dash light. I will decide if I make this permanent but it works for now and I will just plug back in whenever I take Jeep to dealer.
I am confused as you say you unplugged the sensor in the right side of engine bay. I unplugged the wire from the right switch looking towards the windshield, they are on the left side of the vehicle. Is this what you did, I have attached a photo?
Yes that is the correct switch. Looking at the windshield would be on the right, but it is considered the left or driver side. Sorry for the confusion but I'm glad you found it useful. You can also leave the sensor plugged in and just remove it from the bracket, this simulates hood open but it will also give you random warnings. Easier to just unplug it.Thanks for the info, I tried this today and works with no issues whatsoever. Remote start works as well as backup camera, only downside is dash light.

I heard the same thing but haven’t tried it. I will soon though.i read somewhere that if you plug in a trailer wiring light tester into the trailer wiring socket it will simulate a trailer hookup and disable the start stop feature-has anyone tried this?
You get a message in the center of the dash that says it's not working that last's a few seconds. Also a small amber light in the upper right of the dash that stay's on all the time.So what warning do you get by unplugging the ess hood switch?
Well, several of us have been wondering about that. Thanks for answering that question.I plugged in my receiver mounted brake/running light into the 5 prong trailer plug. Start/stop still works. So much for that idea.
I'm still not sure about the other plug, though.
