It will but it will also deactivate reverse sensors, blind spot monitoring systems, and remind you every single time you fire it up that a trailer is connected, and the aforementioned are disabled. It will work, but not ideal.

Works like a charm

$100 to remove a factory option. Crazy.

Many options. That product will work, Forscan will work, and there is also a wire lead and connector coming off the negative terminal that can be disconnected. This disables the "smart" battery monitoring, which will also disabled the engine start/stop. from someone smarter than me: "Disabling the current sensor turns the battery state-of-charge management off, effectively returning the truck to an "old school" alternator configuration where they simply chase voltage. This may mean a very minor drop in fuel economy, as well as potentially slightly reduced performance (since, with the SoC management in place, they can effectively disable the alternator at WOT, reducing load on the motor)". I don't think that's the best option, as you can go in with Forscan and disable JUST the auto start stop in the body control module, without affecting anything else.

Government emissions regulations are really starting to get ridiculous. I guarantee you there's more wear on an engine starting 500 times a day than some minuscule amount of gas burned at a stop light. Means folks will have to buy a new truck sooner. And then there's tractors...

I've heard multiple stories about farmers having to have a "mechanic" come out to work on a tractor, and he shows up in khakis with no tools other than a laptop.......ridiculous is an understatement.

I know that it's probably not a big deal for most folks, but the idea that I could be on my land, working on my tractor, and not be able to turn off my tractor at the exact moment I want (regen cycle) pisses me off. I've got a tier III tractor for that reason. Sorry to derail thread

Because burning more fuel to reduce emissions makes perfect sense.

When did GMC start putting that on them? I have never heard one cut off at a traffic light. I know my 18 doesn't have that on it.

I don’t even have a key either. Now that’s what really pisses me off. I can handle the auto shutoff with a button. I can’t stand not having a truck key

wow; there's no hole for a key on the door at all? a lot of FOB's have a key hidden inside ... wild! that'd piss me off too

What happens when you fall into the duck hole with your keys in your pocket and the battery shorts out, or goes dead? You get to walk home with hypothermia?

What exactly are y’all referring to?

It’s got a weird lil key for door that is. But what I like to do is park in my truck roll the key to middle position and listen to radio while watching to shoot a deer. Or my fob thing may be upstairs and I need run somewhere. Used to be I left key in my truck 24/7. Not anymore

The most dangerous part about an automatic cut off, is that it'll automatically cut back on. There have been several recent cases of people pulling in their garage, put car in park, car shuts off. They close the garage door and go inside and go to bed. Car turns back on and kills the people inside from carbon monoxide. If you don't believe me, look it up.

gotcha

The car cuts itself off at a traffic light or stop sign and then turns itself back on when you push the gas. Kind of like a gas golf cart.
