My new Odyssey (See https://forums.radioreference.com/threads/new-2019-odyssey-install.384732/) has a "Feature" called Auto Engine Idle Stop (AEIS) that shuts off the engine at stop lights or when stationary for a few seconds for fuel savings. The problem is that it causes a voltage drop sharp enough to make my BCD996P2 and BCD536HP to power cycle. The Alinco is on the same power cable and stays on, it apparently is more tolerant of voltage drops.
While there is a button on the dash that can defeat the AEIS one has to remember to press that after the engine is started every time.
Is there anyone who knows how to defeat this feature so that it stays off?
I have tried a couple Honda forums and no one there has figured it out. There is also a guy in VA that makes a device that connects to the diagnostic port that defeats this but he doesn't have it for Hondas.
