As the above title suggests, is there a way to recode the stop start button next to the ac controls/hazard lights to carry out the function of the esc off button which comes as standard on Cupras. i have stop start disabled so do not use that button at all.

You need wiring to ABS control unit for ESC button functionality.
No way for it to work without a signal to that specific pin in the control unit.

In case you're willing to do the wiring, it would be better to buy the switch unit with the ESC button and replace the existing switch unit without ESC button, instead of using Stop/Start button, in my opinion of course.

I see. thanks for clarifying... seems like to be a bigger job than i assumed. Does anyone offer this as a service that you are aware of. I would prefer to simply pay to get it done.

No, unfortunately, as I live in another country.
But I'm sure there are people here to advise you on that.
 
I did actually check your website to see how much this would cost but could not find this specific service. How much would this cost?

I think i would actually get this done as there are a couple other services you offer i would also like to add.
We don’t/can’t list everything, however we’re always happy to quote on request 😊

We’d charge £185 supplied and fitted, inclusive of VAT
