2019-2023 Chevrolet Traverse Auto Start Stop Eliminator

Built for the 2019–2023 Chevrolet Traverse, this inline memory harness keeps Auto Stop/Start in whatever state you left it. Press the button once, and the setting carries over to the next start. It plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions. Both ends are factory-style plugs, so nothing is cut or spliced.

The factory button stays in place and still works. Press it and the module stores the new choice. Unplug the module and the vehicle goes back to stock behavior.

Vehicles and years covered

The fitment table for this SKU lists the following, each marked as a 100% fitment match:

• Chevrolet Traverse: 2019–2023

The listing is written around the second-generation (2018-2024) Traverse. Trim is not listed separately. Any trim in these years with factory stop-start and the pictured connector is covered.

How Auto Stop/Start behaves from the factory

With Auto Stop/Start active, the engine shuts off when the vehicle comes to a stop and restarts when you lift off the brake or press the accelerator. The off button is a manual override for that drive only. Turn the ignition off and back on, and the system defaults to on again, so drivers who prefer it off end up pressing the button at the start of every trip.

What the module does and does not do

• It does not write anything to the vehicle's modules, and removing it restores the stock default.
• It remembers the last stop-start setting through a key cycle.
• It does not change engine power, transmission shifts, emissions calibration or fuel trims.
• It leaves the factory button working, so you can turn stop-start back on whenever you want.

Installing the inline memory harness

It plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions. Both ends are factory-style plugs, so nothing is cut or spliced. Disconnect nothing else and splice nothing. Once both plugs are locked, tuck the harness where it will not be pinched when the panel goes back on. Test by switching Auto Stop/Start off, cycling the ignition and checking the indicator.

Troubleshooting notes

A dead or weak battery, a charging problem or an unrelated module fault will change how Auto Stop/Start behaves with or without this part installed. Scan the vehicle for stored codes, test the battery and confirm the system works normally with the factory button before installation. That baseline makes any later issue easy to pin down.

Typical reasons to keep it off

Some owners only want stop-start off in certain seasons or on certain trips, such as towing a trailer or crawling through summer traffic with the A/C working hard. Because the module remembers whatever you chose last, it works both ways: leave the system off for a week, then switch it back on with the factory button and it stays on.

Battery and charging

Vehicles with stop-start normally use an AGM or EFB battery sized for repeated restarts. If you replace it, use the same type and size, and follow the manufacturer's battery reset or registration step where one exists. A wrong or unregistered battery can leave the stop-start system disabled, and that has nothing to do with this module.

When the engine will not auto-stop anyway

Even with Auto Stop/Start enabled, the engine control logic only stops the engine when conditions allow it. Typical blockers are a low battery state of charge, an engine that has not reached operating temperature, heavy heating or A/C demand, steering input, an open door or unlatched seatbelt, and some drive modes. If the system never seems to stop the engine, one of these is usually the reason, and the module does not change that logic.

Fitment check

• Model year and model match a row in the table above (2019–2023 Chevrolet Traverse).
• Your Chevrolet Traverse has the factory stop-start button. Base trims or engines without stop-start have nothing for the module to remember.
• The battery and charging system test good and no warning lights are on.
• The connector at your install point matches the one in the product photos.
• No aftermarket remote start, alarm or gateway bypass is wired into the same circuit. If one is, email support before ordering.
• If you are unsure, send your VIN to support@automotivebypass.com and we will confirm fitment.
