I have a way but its much harder but more permanent, Vote Liberals out of office!!!

What about moisture getting in the fuse thing?

Hero right there!

Vivo en Mexico, si funciona perfectamente !!!! Tengo Equinox 2020 , cubri con cinta isolante para evitar cualquer contacto con agua y polpo Muchas gracias amigo !

Mine is still connected and still my auto stop doesn’t work. I wanted it to stop working but can’t remember what I did 😢

Thanks for the tip. I hate the auto stop start.😊

This video help a lot for me I went to my car dealership asking about my problem but they don’t know the answer, thank you very much for helping us from your video eh,🍁🇨🇦🍁

Ran across this video. I’ve only seen the ones with the gear shift. Results: 1. It worked. Separating is a little difficult but be patient. 2. Our vehicle has a remote start feature. It no longer function. Rarely used it so not a big deal. 3. Check engine light came on. There are comments in the comment section about this but it is deep in there. Not sure if there is a fix for it or not. Once a year we have emissions testing so I will probably reconnect about a month prior and try to reset before testing.

Has anyone tried it on a 2013 chevy malibu eco by any chance?

Great video. Fantastic info. Hope you make it to America

He in the US our models come with a button to turn it off

Ehhh....smart person would've figure those features already.

You are de best my friend 👍👍👍

One thing you missed in the cons. The remote start feature will not work anymore.

It's called a zip tie in the US too:) If I ever decided to to this, I would cover both of those open ends of the plug ends to keep the moisture out of the electrical. Great video.

I believe there is a bypass connector you can buy for a out $15 that hooks up to both ends of this connection. I'm going to try that.

This dude is close thats the correct harness but they sell a jumper that disables it for $15 search buy auto start stop delete harness year make model also their are more detailed videos on how to disconnect the harness

You can permanently disable it by refusing to buy cars with the stop start 'feature' until GM stops installing it on cars

I tried this on my 2018 Equinox and it worked, however, the Check Engine light did come on (after a while) and it bothered me. I bought a “jumper” wire on Amazon for $14.92 and proceeded to install it. But first, I wanted to make the Check Engine light go out. I hooked-up my OBDII code reader (hoping to clear the codes) but it must be outdated for this car bc it didn’t work right. I then tried the old method for getting the ECM to reset itself to factory specs by disconnecting the NEG battery terminal for 10-minutes. At the same time, I reconnected the original wiring (without the jumper) hooked the NEG terminal up and started the car. The Check Engine light was OUT. I was going to get it back to normal (shutting off at stops) THEN install the jumper cable to eliminate that function and still prevent the Check Engine light from coming on. I set about test driving the car in a manner I’ve read for allowing the ECM to reset itself (but here’s what I did wrong) When I put the car in gear, I dropped it into L (low) out of force-of-habit and clicked the + button 5 times to put the car in LOW 6. I pulled out and immediately realized I had wanted to start out in D (drive) so before it shifted, I pushed the gear stick up to D. Guess what? The car doesn’t shut off at stops AND the hood wire is connected and there’s no jumper in the line. I decided to run the car for a while to see if it begins to shut off again.

We disconnected the auto stop but my car has a check engine light

Yes you can permanently disable the auto stop feature by disengaing the connector directly behind the latch but you will also get a check engine light.

Thank you for your help. Tried the gear shift in L and moved it to 6 but they didn't mention leave it in L. Excellent and complete information.

Thanks for the video

Thank you. best video for this situation. 3 different ways to disable idle shutdown

Definitely going to try this

My check engine light came on and won’t turn off when I connect em back. What do I do?

Thank you very much for this video!! I have a 2019 Traverse and have been trying to figure out how to disable that annoying feature. It should be the same as the Equinox and I am going to try it in the morning. Thanks again!!

Buy another gm vehicle. That should tell you how the rest of it is engineered.

Thank you so much it works perfect.. no check engine light whatsoever 2018 Equinox

Why does GM do this? Why has no one sued for the wear and tear on their car?

My 2018 Chevy Spark has this auto stop feature and it drives me insane!! Sometimes at a light when stopped and when letting my flot off the brake the whole car will shut off for a second or two. It's very annoying and I've heard that this is one way to get around that!

I wonder if there is a fuse in the fuse panel that you can take out to accomplish the same thing

Lets just be honest we all fkng hate that auto stop sht!!! Ive seen like 2 cars that have a button to disable it they should all have it its anoyying!!! I live in a city with heavy traffic it stops like 4 or 5 times every time i go out sometimes even while parking infront of my house! Fck that sht. I hope theyre saving whales or animals or the woods or the planet by putting that crap in every truck and car 😒😒😒😒

Sorry buddy that's not a fuse

Thank you so much this video very helpful

HoA.....you rock Brother!! Well done

I was thinking about dust/dirt or moisture getting into the connectors, maybe some electrical tape over the ends ?? Thank you so much for the video.......

the zip ties are not needed both ends are already secured, what you do need to be concerned with is the 2 Open ends of a harness that need to be sealed or they will corrode and get filled with trash over time

Doesn’t this disable electronic start

I pulled apart the connection under the hood like you showed in this video. I was wondering if your engine light came on after disconnecting. The shut off has quit, but engine light is on. Is that just telling the car that, that particular part has been Tampered with?

question: when you disconnet the cable, does the ckeck engine turn on?

Thank you very much I wish I would have seen this video a year or two ago thank you again!

it put engine light after 30 min

Can you follow up....no engine light? no cons? Just disconnect the connector and that is it?

Thanks! I needed this! Worked on my new 2018 traverse. "Put anotha shrimp on the barbae" cheers. 😁

This should make your vehicle easier to steal because one can find a way to open the hood or bonnet and the alarm will not go off then they'll just tow the vehicle away.

Did not work on my 2019 terrain in U,S lasted about 10 minutes, engine alarm came on and stayed on, check engine light stayed on until car was driven about 10 miles after plug was replaced. typical government into our lives.

Y’all it worked on my 2017 Chevy malibu!

Bonnet? lol I think here in america a bonnet was a girls hat lolz In America we call them both as far as a cable or zip tie...pretty much interchangeable.

Thank you so much for making this video, hope you can make it to the US I would love to meet you and your family. I would love to go to Australia also one day it’s my dream!
