This is absolutely the easiest way to disable the auto start. Everything comes in the kit took me 15 minutes to install it. And with my truck, I did not have to wait eight hours for a power down. It started instantaneously.
2021 silverado diesel here, for the people complaining about turning it off every time, to me is no big deal, I just added to the routine of putting my seat belt on and do the auto stop next after my seatbelt every time, and I never forget, got so used to it , it doesn't bother me at all.
I do the exact routine. I get in, put on seat belt, hit my push to start, and then hit my auto start/stop button. It's not a hassle or inconvenience at all.
The auto stop start eliminator that’s available for the Yukon is super easy to install and better than this. The dash panel pieces easily come by hand in a matter of seconds.
@@rpe97 unless you’ve done the one, you can’t say it’s better. I’ve done both and the one that gets installed inside the vehicle is a better more purpose built solution. Messing with the battery and cabling to it is not better.
2021 GMC AT4; put the switch that goes behind the center console two years ago. For me it was a safety concern, I pull up to a stop (usually for a right turn) then the truck shuts off when I want to make the turn and accelerate. If your trying to merge into traffic with a vehicle that cycles off then has to restart? There are many right turns with merging lanes in my area with a vehicle that shuts down ain't fun.
That's strange. My 2024 GMC starts the engine before I can even lift my foot off the brake, let alone move it to the throttle. Maybe you should have taken it in to be looked at instead of putting mods on it?
@@gumenski does not mean your successful at it. There are plenty of "race car drivers" that are clueless. Bottom line, these switches are to stop the engine from shutting down everytime you come to a stop. All that constant stop start can't possibly be good in the long term. If you were a good race car driver, you would realize this.
That’s a nice option versus removing console and lower dash. I put the behind the dash version eliminator on my wife’s 23 Suburban but it was to the left of the steering wheel and simple to access.
Absolutely ridiculous to do any of this. Just tap the on/off button for the stupid auto stop feature which is on the dash each time you start up the engine. Surely you do not think that is a difficult thing to do. Right?
@@roberthenry9319 Easy to do, hard to remember every time. I'm new to having this, so maybe it will become more automatic for me to turn off as soon as I get in... but 99% of the time I forget until I get to my first stop and it shuts off on me.
I just ordered my second one of these for a new Silverado I just purchased. It’s so easy to install and works flawlessly, unlike the big brand competitor where you have to tear your dash apart to install it. No thank you. This unit is the way to go.
Just installed yesterday on a 2024 Colorado Trail Boss... works great... near effortless Just remember slide the red lock back on the plug and pinch it with plyers and it comes right off.

Does this affect how the BMS or whatever charges the battery? Seems like it tricks the system into thinking there isn’t enough voltage for the Auto Start Stop, which may influence how the system treats the battery (as I’ve heard these modern systems regulate voltage depending on State of Charge and battery condition etc).
Just tap the damn "on/off" button on the dash to disable the stupid federally mandated auto ignition stop/start system every time you drive. The button even has a light to show whether the system is on or off. Nothing about your vehicle is easier to understand or to do than tapping that auto ignition start/stop on/off button. There is absolutely no need to permanently disable the auto stop/start system. Ever. The vehicle manufacturer could not have made this more simple.
@@roberthenry9319 With that mindset, why get electric windows, just manually roll them down each time yourself. Its a ridiculous concept. It does not save fuel by stopping at a 4 way stop, to shut off then immediately back on within a 1 min, but it does cause reduction in part life because ignitions, pumps, relays, etc can only be cycled so many times before they fail.
@roberthenry9319 Actually, it is a major inconvenience and safety concern. First, every time I get into my car to drive, I have to press 3 or 4 buttons and warnings just to get my vehicle to function. These federally mandated warnings and "features", have now become a burden. I will gladly pay to eliminate every one that I can. Secondarily, I've almost gotten into an accident on a few occasions because my vehicle shut off and it takes a few seconds to start back up if you need to quickly accelerate or get out of the way in traffic.

New 24 LT Z71 here. Is this product going to do crazzy things to the electronics, possibly? Is it going to void the warranty? I absolutely hate that system!! Thank You
It comes on with the defrost on, I think its partially temperature controlled, then whatever draw is on the battery. So if you have a lot of stuff on, like stereo, defroster or A/C and headlights then it won't come on as often.@@ShiftEnvy
I noticed in the video that your AC was on, mine never shuts off when the AC is on. But as soon as the AC is off, it shuts down. So it does work with the AC off?
6 cylinder duramax diesel? I’ve had (2), both with an overpowering coolant smell that’s most prominent from the passenger side fender/hood area but can also be smelled inside the truck. Have you experienced this?
Yes, if your coolant level is low, then I suggest you take a look at my video on leaks to give you some ideas on where to look. If no coolant loss, then it's likely the same thing most of us have which is just a smell from the coolant reservoir cap purging. ruclips.net/video/HLhqwX_3ByI/видео.html
If you were to ever have funky electrical system gremlins popping up , beware that aftermarket add on's causing diagnostic trouble shooting time will NOT be warranty covered ,especially if they cause a component failure of some kind , they will totally void the entire vehicle warranty coverage
That is not remotely true. If you have an electrical issue that the add on part is causing then the repair would be at your expense, but the rest of the vehicle would be warrantied.
Not currently. The plan was to install the other style that plugs into the switch, but I haven't had time to install that one since it requires interior panels to be removed. Instead, I just reach over every time and push the switch, then sigh, then tell myself i really need to install the bypass.
Had this in my wife's 2016 jeep cheakee so we kind of got use of it my 2020 chev Silverado had it and now my 2024 chev Silverado has it now it a habit start motor hit button it doesn't bother me a bit dont even realize i do it
@@DuramaxNews okay it's showing up. I didn't see it earlier. Anybody have any idea if this voids factory warranty or a GM scan tool that they use can detect it has been used before
@@travispinkerton9916 no problem! The 6.6 is obviously their priority and we are next up. The hood thing about that, what they learn and apply to that platform rolls to us.
I installed one and it makes my left speaker pop when I turn the signal light for the first time ,Then after that its fine?But when I start it up again pop then its all fine.
Did you contact the manufacturer? It doesn't make sense to me since this unit just makes the system think the battery is warm... but anything can happen I suppose.
Definitely need this installed because if not it is hard in your engine and starter and battery to keep starting, I get it your trying to save fuel but there is an extent.
Virtually every vehicle with auto-stop has heavy duty starters AND batteries that are far better than the average ones on a regular car. Engineers aren't complete idiots, believe it or not.
@@gumenskitherefore those components will be even more expensive to replace. So with reduced stress they will last even longer and save money long term.
Any help with the operating system saying "sorry i'm offline and can't help you with that" almost every day at random time driving 2023 Silverado? I don't have a subscription to the service and don't want one.
That’s a battery monitoring sensor bypass. The vehicle now thinks the battery isn’t charged enough to use the start stop feature. The downside is that now the vehicle will always be charging the (not really low) battery, even when it’s full. This can damage the (very expensive) glass mat battery over time or worse. 🔥 Trailer hitch connector plug in testers left plugged in do the same thing safely as the car thinks it’s running a trailer and disables the system safely.
Biggest complaints with my 2024 Denali 1500 6.2: 1) The sideview cameras do not work at night, so I can’t park close to a curb. 2) The Auto Stop/Start is dangerous and wears the starter/ring gear out, not to mention the engine internals. 3) The tailgate button is next to the Remote Start button on the DOB, so my tailgate hits my garage and inevitably, a motorcycle that parks too close. 4) It is only a matter of time before the tailgate step smashes into my trailer hitch.
My auto stop only worked the 1st 200 miles , after that , it has not activated. On the other hand, I can not get my seat belt notification to stop beeping, even when the settings is off
This will keep it idling- so no However it will increase turbo longevity because it has constant oil feed if it doesn't shut off as opposed to intermittent
ya no need if you can just do plug and play under the hood. im kind of worried about the one i have now if i ever have to take the truck in. Dealer might spend hours trying to figure out why my dash says auto start off every time the trucks started with out hitting the button. Then hand me a bill.
@@JCunningham21with the under dash version you can actually turn auto start/stop back on by pressing the button, it merely remembers your setting and holds it there.
Ever consider just not pushing the brake pedal down far enough to engage the auto start stop? My Chevys rarely engage until I'm at a stop and sometimes not even then since I don't "hit" my brakes at a stop sign or light, and auto start stop doesn't have any effect when you're rolling. Also helps if you let off on your brake right as it's coming to a stop to prevent the vehicle from jerking suddenly when it comes to a complete stop. I'd recommend most kids learn that when they start to drive.
Range technology makes a plug that disables the auto start and the cylinder shut off. 200 bucks from Amazon and you can keep your truck in v8 mode with no shut off all the time
@@MINIHAHA1 thanks for the info. I checked it out and it only disabled the cylinder shut off, not the auto stop/start. I'll keep looking for something that does both for a reasonable cost.
I got the other one that goes in the dash for my 2021. Just $99 ($135CAD). This one at $140 ($190CAD) is a bit too expensive. Taking apart the dash wasn't that bad. Given a choice, I still would have gone with the other one.
It’s become a habit for me to hit the off button on stop/start after I hit the start button. I don’t thinkthis device is worth the money or is really saving you any time. Plus it could? Screw something up.
It seems like a great alternative to the little harness you plug in behind the dash. The only concern is that they don’t mention anywhere on the site what their module is doing to override start/stop. So how is a consumer supposed to just put their trust in this individual blindly that it won’t negatively impact other systems on the truck?
You must never "trust the individual blindly that it won't negatively impact other systems on the truck". The driver of the vehicle (the consumer) is presumed to be intelligent enough to know to tap the "on/off" button on the dash (which has a yellow light to indicate whether it is on or off) to disable the auto engine stop/start feature when you get into the vehicle after you start the vehicle up or at any time while you are driving the vehicle. Yes, you the consumer does have to tap that button each time you drive the vehicle. You also have to press the AC button to "on" or "off" each time you want to turn the AC on or off. The consumer also has to flip the light switch at home to turn the lights on or off. This can be done without having to disable your home's electric power. Flipping the light switch is not very difficult to do. Neither is tapping the on/off button for the auto stop/start. You think?
What we are paying for these vehicles we should be able to decide if we want this on or off! Not some dumbass sitting behind a desk wasting our tax dollars. Do their jets shut off when they are stopped on the runway?
I installed this and it also disabled the feature that enables the automatic seat heaters from coming on when the temp falls below a certain threshold. Is this normal? What else does it turn off besides the auto stop?
Yeah, my truck normally applies the seat and steering wheel heaters after I remote start when it is cold in the mornings and this morning after installing the unit that did not happen. Very odd.@@DemonWorks
Definitely odd, maybe coincidence or maybe change in outside temp is high enough for it to decide not to enable. This is something I have not experienced though, unfortunately.
A little off subject but I asked this question once before and maybe you addressed it but do any of the PPE or VSE mods you talk about void any warranty coverage with GM?@@DemonWorks
Typically you can disable this under vehicle settings in one of 2 menus you can access from the center console. It can also be switched from the dash cluster. Maybe this changed on the newer one, however I drive these professionally and most of the older and newer rental Tahoe, suburbans, Yukons, Escalades etc have the option to Simply turn it off…
@@DemonWorks This is new or has changed with software I believe. 2015-2020 Tahoe,burban,Yukon,lade can all be deactivated in the menu, maybe even 2021 models are like this changing for 2022. Makes sense now that you say that because they have to meet overall emissions for the fleet, so I guess they baked it in, having it optional I don’t think EPA counts it. ( has to be the default driving mode or something like that) Having to add flex fuel to my Denali XL thankfully this one didn’t have stop start. Speaking of that you can always use HP tuners to turn this feature off too but will cost off License and requires the ECU is sent out for a week to be unlocked. (Totally worth it)
I’m going to go out in a limb here and say that all that unit is doing is making the Battery Load Management system think there is too large of a load to allow the auto start stop system to shut down. Whether or not this has a negative effect on your battery or alternator I wouldn’t know but I would personally avoid messing with a system like your charging system especially if you venture out far with your truck like some of us do.
All it need to do is reduce the voltage during startup, the rest of the time it can give the system the full battery voltage. The vehicle is looking for enough voltage during startup to confirm that the correct battery / a good healthy battery is installed. All it does is trick the system into thinking that the battery is not rated for fast startups required by the auto stop-start system.
A button on my dash to turn off Auto stop is just NOT that big of a deal to me. If a button wasn't easily accessible and was in the glove compartment or under the seat, then I would be interested in this product.
Wonder how it works, it must trick the computer that the battery is at a lower voltage then it really is. So computer never calls for AUTO/START/STOP. Just a guess.
I guess you can say that if you sit there and stare at it. Or, you could just install it in the 20 seconds and continue on with life then once you wake up the next morning you're all set. Hope your day gets better, Don.

New 24 LT Z71 here. Is this product going to do crazzy things to the electronics, possibly?
Is it going to void the warranty?
I absolutely hate that system!! Thank You
So far my auto-stop mostly doesn't come on in winter. It's cold here so it stops stopping at lower than 20°F.
I've heard it won't come on if your front defrost is on.
It comes on with the defrost on, I think its partially temperature controlled, then whatever draw is on the battery. So if you have a lot of stuff on, like stereo, defroster or A/C and headlights then it won't come on as often.@@ShiftEnvy
For any truck o just diesel🤔
Gasoline as well
I just order one for my 2023 AT4. I’ll let you guys know how it goes!
How did it go?
I noticed in the video that your AC was on, mine never shuts off when the AC is on. But as soon as the AC is off, it shuts down. So it does work with the AC off?
6 cylinder duramax diesel? I’ve had (2), both with an overpowering coolant smell that’s most prominent from the passenger side fender/hood area but can also be smelled inside the truck. Have you experienced this?
Yes, if your coolant level is low, then I suggest you take a look at my video on leaks to give you some ideas on where to look. If no coolant loss, then it's likely the same thing most of us have which is just a smell from the coolant reservoir cap purging. ruclips.net/video/HLhqwX_3ByI/видео.html

Thanks, I appreciate it
$140? No thanks. I’ll just push the button.
If you were to ever have funky electrical system gremlins popping up , beware that aftermarket add on's causing diagnostic trouble shooting time will NOT be warranty covered ,especially if they cause a component failure of some kind , they will totally void the entire vehicle warranty coverage
That is not remotely true. If you have an electrical issue that the add on part is causing then the repair would be at your expense, but the rest of the vehicle would be warrantied.
@@jimbearden7704depends on the component. Mess with the ECU in any way and your entire power train warranty goes. Along with electrical work
Magnuson Moss Act says something completely different.
@@jimbearden7704 Hacking the battery management system
Does this interfere with using your auxiliary switches from turning accessories on?
put it into trailering mode. The engine shut off is over ridden . it will stay in trailer mode until the truck is off for several hours
I like the idea, but I don't like running in tow mode.
Burn a lot more gas with tow mode
So push a button to keep from pushing a button?
@@454budman that's pretty darn funny
How does it work from a mechanical perspective?
Just curious to know if you have had any issues since you installed this?
No issues with it, has been working as designed since installed.
Where and what do. I buy for this auto start stop to eliminate the feature at the battery? Thanks
link is in the description.
Do you run this in your zr2?
Not currently. The plan was to install the other style that plugs into the switch, but I haven't had time to install that one since it requires interior panels to be removed. Instead, I just reach over every time and push the switch, then sigh, then tell myself i really need to install the bypass.
Great videos. Keep em up!
What’s the reason for wanting to install a different product on the new truck since this one is so easy to instal?
@@michaelanderson350I try to test and show the installation of every product available.
Hi Quick question, does this device cause a draw on the battery when the vehicle is not in use?
Will this work on 2020 Sierra RST as well?
Yes, it should. Double check with the website but it's the same setup.
Had this in my wife's 2016 jeep cheakee so we kind of got use of it my 2020 chev Silverado had it and now my 2024 chev Silverado has it now it a habit start motor hit button it doesn't bother me a bit dont even realize i do it
Does anybody have a link to this or what is it called exactly I can't understand what he says in the video. thanks
It’s in the description
@@DuramaxNews okay it's showing up. I didn't see it earlier. Anybody have any idea if this voids factory warranty or a GM scan tool that they use can detect it has been used before
Did you have any issues with your auto cooled seats? After installing this my auto cool seat feature does not work.
My 85 chevy stalls at lights sometimes. Will this help?
It's not every day someone comes through with an explosively hilarious joke. Unfortunately, still no sign of anything good coming through today.
Damn I wish you would of slowed that down . Does the light come on now on inside switch . After the install? Thats a great trick. Thanks
The light on the switch stays on.
Yep, works great and installed in a few minutes.
Great to hear!
Hey man you have any connections at banks about when the Lzo tuner is coming out? Thanks
Once you see the 6.6 Derringer arrive, we will get ours
@@DemonWorks thanks dude. Will keep checking daily. Banks is the only name I can trust
@@travispinkerton9916 no problem! The 6.6 is obviously their priority and we are next up. The hood thing about that, what they learn and apply to that platform rolls to us.
I installed one and it makes my left speaker pop when I turn the signal light for the first time ,Then after that its fine?But when I start it up again pop then its all fine.
Did you contact the manufacturer? It doesn't make sense to me since this unit just makes the system think the battery is warm... but anything can happen I suppose.
@@DemonWorks I sent them a massage see what happens.
Definitely need this installed because if not it is hard in your engine and starter and battery to keep starting, I get it your trying to save fuel but there is an extent.
Virtually every vehicle with auto-stop has heavy duty starters AND batteries that are far better than the average ones on a regular car. Engineers aren't complete idiots, believe it or not.
@@gumenskitherefore those components will be even more expensive to replace. So with reduced stress they will last even longer and save money long term.
Much easier to install for sure.
I need one for a 2018 terrain
Where do you get this product from
AWESOME find! Would love to that the 1/2 ton diesel really nice truck!
Thanks !
Any help with the operating system saying "sorry i'm offline and can't help you with that" almost every day at random time driving 2023 Silverado? I don't have a subscription to the service and don't want one.
I have no help for ya, unfortunately. I do not like the google system ...
My truck also says the same thing to me usually in the first mile of driving but randomly!
does that remove the dfm as well?
No, that would need to be a different device.
@@DemonWorks Thanks for the response
That’s a battery monitoring sensor bypass. The vehicle now thinks the battery isn’t charged enough to use the start stop feature. The downside is that now the vehicle will always be charging the (not really low) battery, even when it’s full. This can damage the (very expensive) glass mat battery over time or worse. 🔥 Trailer hitch connector plug in testers left plugged in do the same thing safely as the car thinks it’s running a trailer and disables the system safely.
incorrect. in many areas ..... that trailer hitch plug you recommend will disable the park sensors.
Would this work on my ram 2024 1500 hemi ?
Unfortunately, I do not know. i would reach out to the manufacturer.
Biggest complaints with my 2024 Denali 1500 6.2:
1) The sideview cameras do not work at night, so I can’t park close to a curb.
2) The Auto Stop/Start is dangerous and wears the starter/ring gear out, not
to mention the engine internals.
3) The tailgate button is next to the Remote Start button on the DOB, so my
tailgate hits my garage and inevitably, a motorcycle that parks too close.
4) It is only a matter of time before the tailgate step smashes into my trailer
hitch.
For complaint 4 u can lockout the inner tailgate
My auto stop only worked the 1st 200 miles , after that , it has not activated.
On the other hand, I can not get my seat belt notification to stop beeping, even when the settings is off
What year is your truck. Did u reach out to the manufacturer?
HTF does it work if its only connected to power? 😲
Would this be useful in traffic so truck doesn’t idle as much?
This will keep it idling- so no
However it will increase turbo longevity because it has constant oil feed if it doesn't shut off as opposed to intermittent
Wait how do you record and use carplay
When i try to record or use mic while using carplay there is no vice
Separate camera used, not my phone.
i did the one behind the dash. ordered it befor I even picked up the truck
I have that one sitting on my desk. I didn't feel like going through all of the disassembly with the console.
ya no need if you can just do plug and play under the hood. im kind of worried about the one i have now if i ever have to take the truck in. Dealer might spend hours trying to figure out why my dash says auto start off every time the trucks started with out hitting the button. Then hand me a bill.
@@JCunningham21with the under dash version you can actually turn auto start/stop back on by pressing the button, it merely remembers your setting and holds it there.
correct @@Johnny_Bee
Ever consider just not pushing the brake pedal down far enough to engage the auto start stop? My Chevys rarely engage until I'm at a stop and sometimes not even then since I don't "hit" my brakes at a stop sign or light, and auto start stop doesn't have any effect when you're rolling. Also helps if you let off on your brake right as it's coming to a stop to prevent the vehicle from jerking suddenly when it comes to a complete stop. I'd recommend most kids learn that when they start to drive.
May as well just push the button. I’m a light braker and it will still engage auto stop when you come to a full stop.
does doing that effect the warrentee?
I would think so because you’re putting in aftermarket stuff.
I believe so because it’s aftermarket.
Range technology makes a plug that disables the auto start and the cylinder shut off. 200 bucks from Amazon and you can keep your truck in v8 mode with no shut off all the time
Absolutely, I have that on my camaro
Do you have a link to the product (or the name)? I only see Range Technology modules that do one or the other, but not both.
@@pigzaj2 Range Technology RA003B AFM/DFM Disabler-Blue
@@MINIHAHA1 thanks for the info. I checked it out and it only disabled the cylinder shut off, not the auto stop/start. I'll keep looking for something that does both for a reasonable cost.
@pigzaj2 the one I have disabled it. My truck hasn't shit off since I plugged it in
I actually don’t mind it on in my truck it’s really not that bad of a transition on the 2.7 turbo motor
Where can I buy this. Got a link?
I got the other one that goes in the dash for my 2021. Just $99 ($135CAD). This one at $140 ($190CAD) is a bit too expensive. Taking apart the dash wasn't that bad. Given a choice, I still would have gone with the other one.
I’ll push the button.
It’s become a habit for me to hit the off button on stop/start after I hit the start button. I don’t thinkthis device is worth the money or is really saving you any time. Plus it could? Screw something up.
Does it void any warranty
Only your dealer can answer that as all are different. 20 second installation.
Yes
Can dealer disconnect it at time of purchase
they cannot.
It seems like a great alternative to the little harness you plug in behind the dash. The only concern is that they don’t mention anywhere on the site what their module is doing to override start/stop. So how is a consumer supposed to just put their trust in this individual blindly that it won’t negatively impact other systems on the truck?
You must never "trust the individual blindly that it won't negatively impact other systems on the truck". The driver of the vehicle (the consumer) is presumed to be intelligent enough to know to tap the "on/off" button on the dash (which has a yellow light to indicate whether it is on or off) to disable the auto engine stop/start feature when you get into the vehicle after you start the vehicle up or at any time while you are driving the vehicle. Yes, you the consumer does have to tap that button each time you drive the vehicle. You also have to press the AC button to "on" or "off" each time you want to turn the AC on or off. The consumer also has to flip the light switch at home to turn the lights on or off. This can be done without having to disable your home's electric power. Flipping the light switch is not very difficult to do. Neither is tapping the on/off button for the auto stop/start. You think?
I don't have that junk on my '23 4Runner. What an easy fix that was.
Thanks for watching, please feel free to check out more GM related content.
Doesn’t this void your warranty?
Which warranty would it void?
What we are paying for these vehicles we should be able to decide if we want this on or off! Not some dumbass sitting behind a desk wasting our tax dollars. Do their jets shut off when they are stopped on the runway?
How does it work?
Alters the temp reading in the module so it deactivates the start stop feature.
Lol it's a habit now soon as I start I hit button done 😂
How about take 2 second and push the button that is in every start/stop car.
fill it up and drive ! Thanks for watching
Chevy Equinox up to 2023 do not have the button on the dash, so....
I installed this and it also disabled the feature that enables the automatic seat heaters from coming on when the temp falls below a certain threshold. Is this normal? What else does it turn off besides the auto stop?
I do not see how that would affect the seat heaters like that. It definitely did not do that to mine.
Yeah, my truck normally applies the seat and steering wheel heaters after I remote start when it is cold in the mornings and this morning after installing the unit that did not happen. Very odd.@@DemonWorks
Definitely odd, maybe coincidence or maybe change in outside temp is high enough for it to decide not to enable. This is something I have not experienced though, unfortunately.
A little off subject but I asked this question once before and maybe you addressed it but do any of the PPE or VSE mods you talk about void any warranty coverage with GM?@@DemonWorks
Where do I order this part?
$150 for this module or $99 for the one that goes behind the dash?!? Seems like the pricing is a bit high to justify for me...just my thoughts.
I hear ya, I have both but opted to install this one because it was so much more convenient.
Typically you can disable this under vehicle settings in one of 2 menus you can access from the center console. It can also be switched from the dash cluster. Maybe this changed on the newer one, however I drive these professionally and most of the older and newer rental Tahoe, suburbans, Yukons, Escalades etc have the option to
Simply turn it off…
Negative. It's an emissions thing, not something one can just turn off permanently. There is a manual button one can press at each key cycle, though.
@@DemonWorks This is new or has changed with software I believe. 2015-2020 Tahoe,burban,Yukon,lade can all be deactivated in the menu, maybe even 2021 models are like this changing for 2022. Makes sense now that you say that because they have to meet overall emissions for the fleet, so I guess they baked it in, having it optional I don’t think EPA counts it. ( has to be the default driving mode or something like that) Having to add flex fuel to my Denali XL thankfully this one didn’t have stop start. Speaking of that you can always use HP tuners to turn this feature off too but will cost off
License and requires the ECU is sent out for a week to be unlocked. (Totally worth it)
Right, but you don't share how to? Thats what they call blowing smoke out the a$$
😂😂
I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure if you hold the start button for 10 seconds it shuts off the auto start stop mode.
There's a button on the dash to shut it off.
Holding the start button down for 10sec stops the car/truck from shutting down after idling a while.
I’m going to go out in a limb here and say that all that unit is doing is making the Battery Load Management system think there is too large of a load to allow the auto start stop system to shut down. Whether or not this has a negative effect on your battery or alternator I wouldn’t know but I would personally avoid messing with a system like your charging system especially if you venture out far with your truck like some of us do.
All it need to do is reduce the voltage during startup, the rest of the time it can give the system the full battery voltage.
The vehicle is looking for enough voltage during startup to confirm that the correct battery / a good healthy battery is installed.
All it does is trick the system into thinking that the battery is not rated for fast startups required by the auto stop-start system.
I put that on my 2019 chevy equinox. Now my remote start doesnt work.
Typically that is caused by a Check Engine light on, do you have a check engine light on the dash?
No check engine light@@DemonWorks
No check engine@@DemonWorks
Dam getting one! Thank you Buddy 🙏
No problem 👍
Your Truck a diesel or gas ?
Diesel
My 82 Chevy doesn't have that problem
I wonder why 🙄
A button on my dash to turn off Auto stop is just NOT that big of a deal to me. If a button wasn't easily accessible and was in the glove compartment or under the seat, then I would be interested in this product.
Wonder how it works, it must trick the computer that the battery is at a lower voltage then it really is. So computer never calls for AUTO/START/STOP. Just a guess.
Manipulated battery temp reading.
So takes about 9 hours to install got it.
I guess you can say that if you sit there and stare at it. Or, you could just install it in the 20 seconds and continue on with life then once you wake up the next morning you're all set. Hope your day gets better, Don.
