Coverage is the 2022–2026 Lexus NX350. It plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions, using factory-style plugs on both ends, so nothing is cut or spliced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt does not delete the feature. Turning stop-start back on is the same button press as before, and the module will remember that too. Removing it returns the vehicle to its original default.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part is listed for these vehicles, all marked 100% fitment match:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLexus NX350: 2022–2026\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe listing is written around the second-generation (2022-up) NX. The table does not separate trims; what matters is that the vehicle has factory stop-start and the connector shown in the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the factory system does\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the Lexus NX350, Stop \u0026amp; Start shuts the engine down at a stop and fires it back up as the brake is released. You can switch it off with the dash button, but the choice is not saved. The next ignition cycle brings the default back. The module keeps the choice you made instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere owners notice the difference\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome owners only want stop-start off in certain seasons or on certain trips, such as towing a trailer or crawling through summer traffic with the A\/C working hard. Because the module remembers whatever you chose last, it works both ways: leave the system off for a week, then switch it back on with the factory button and it stays on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the module does and does not do\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuel use changes only the way it would if you pressed the off button yourself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes out in the same way it went in, with nothing cut.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarries your stop-start choice over to the next drive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoes not disable warning lights or diagnostic functions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA dead or weak battery, a charging problem or an unrelated module fault will change how Stop \u0026amp; Start behaves with or without this part installed. Scan the vehicle for stored codes, test the battery and confirm the system works normally with the factory button before installation. That baseline makes any later issue easy to pin down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA note on the battery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost stop-start systems watch battery condition closely through a sensor on the negative terminal. When the battery ages, the system quietly stops auto-stopping long before the battery fails to crank. Keeping the original battery type (AGM or EFB) and a clean, tight ground connection avoids a lot of confusion about why the system behaves differently from week to week.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf stop-start is not engaging\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEven with Stop \u0026amp; Start enabled, the engine control logic only stops the engine when conditions allow it. Typical blockers are a low battery state of charge, an engine that has not reached operating temperature, heavy heating or A\/C demand, steering input, an open door or unlatched seatbelt, and some drive modes. If the system never seems to stop the engine, one of these is usually the reason, and the module does not change that logic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation and removal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions, using factory-style plugs on both ends, so nothing is cut or spliced. Disconnect nothing else and splice nothing. Once both plugs are locked, tuck the harness where it will not be pinched when the panel goes back on. Test by switching Stop \u0026amp; Start off, cycling the ignition and checking the indicator.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuick fitment check\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel year and model match a row in the table above (2022–2026 Lexus NX350).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour Lexus NX350 has the factory stop-start button.

Battery state is one of the inputs that decides whether the engine may stop. With the module installed the same rules apply, and the same battery type should be used when it is replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe reason the button has to be pressed every trip\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUS fuel-economy testing explains the reset. If a stop-start system is non-latching, meaning it switches back on whenever the vehicle is restarted, the EPA measures fuel economy with the system working. If the driver can switch it off permanently, the EPA tests with it both on and off and averages the two, which gives a lower number. Manufacturers therefore make the system come back on at every start, and drivers who prefer it off end up pressing the button each trip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBefore you plug it in\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIgnition off, transmission in Park, fob outside the cabin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstructions for your exact model at hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector location confirmed against the photos before any panel comes off.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA plastic pry tool for clips, if the connector sits behind trim.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth connector locks fully engaged after fitting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModule and lead fixed in place, clear of pedals, steering and heat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTest: choose your Stop \u0026amp; Start setting, turn the vehicle off, restart and check the indicator.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf something is not right\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMemory does not hold:\u003c\/strong\u003e Re-seat both plugs until the locks click, then repeat the restart test.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Unavailable\" or flashing indicator:\u003c\/strong\u003e A factory condition (battery charge, cabin temperature, engine temperature) is blocking stop-start.

Unplug the module and reconnect the factory connector; the vehicle returns to its stock default.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill Stop \u0026amp; Start come back on when I restart my Lexus NX350?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot if you turned it off before shutting down.

The factory button works normally. The module simply stores whatever you chose last.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich Lexus NX350 years does this fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe listed range is 2022–2026.

Send the VIN to support if you are unsure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes my Lexus NX350 need the factory stop-start button for this to work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The module works with the factory stop-start system and its button. A vehicle built without stop-start has no setting for it to remember.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens if I unplug it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vehicle returns to the factory default, with Stop \u0026amp; Start switched on at every start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it change how the battery is charged?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Charging is still managed by the vehicle. Stop-start vehicles normally use an AGM or EFB battery built for frequent restarts; replace it with the same type when it wears out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does it connect?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions, using factory-style plugs on both ends, so nothing is cut or spliced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does Stop \u0026amp; Start turn itself back on every time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAutomakers set stop-start to default to on at each start. Under EPA test rules, a system that stays off after shutdown is tested both on and off and the results are averaged, which lowers the rated fuel economy, so most systems reset at every key cycle. The module carries your last choice across that reset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it change engine power or fuel trims?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It does not reprogram the engine or transmission computers. It only stores the stop-start button state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill it fix a \"stop-start unavailable\" message?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. That message usually points to the battery or a sensor.
