Coverage is the 2023–2025 GMC Canyon. It plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions, using factory-style plugs on both ends, so nothing is cut or spliced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVehicles and years covered\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitment table for this SKU lists the following, each marked as a 100% fitment match:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eGMC Canyon: 2023–2025\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe listing is written around the third-generation (2023-up) Canyon. Trim is not listed separately. Any trim in these years with factory stop-start and the pictured connector is covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the factory system does\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe factory logic arms Auto Stop\/Start every time the engine starts. Turning it off with the button only lasts until the engine is shut down. Owners who sit in stop-and-go traffic, tow, or idle in drive-throughs often prefer it off, and that is where the repeated button press comes from.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConditions the factory system checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuto stop needs several conditions at once: a warm engine, enough battery charge, moderate cabin heating or cooling demand, and the vehicle fully stopped with the brake held. If any is missing, the engine keeps running. The module only remembers the button state; the factory controller still decides whether a stop is allowed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation and removal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions, using factory-style plugs on both ends, so nothing is cut or spliced. Because it is plug-in only, removal is the reverse: unplug the module and reconnect the factory connectors directly. Keep the original clips and trim fasteners if you remove a panel to reach the connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the module does and does not do\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeaves engine and transmission software untouched.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLets you re-enable the system with the factory button at any time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeaves no permanent change after removal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolds the stop-start button state between drives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere owners notice the difference\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePressing the same button on every drive is what wears on owners. People who tow, plow, idle in pickup lines, creep through heavy traffic or simply want the engine running at a light end up making the same press dozens of times a week. On the GMC Canyon, the module turns that into a one-time choice you can still change whenever you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA note on the battery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost stop-start systems watch battery condition closely through a sensor on the negative terminal. When the battery ages, the system quietly stops auto-stopping long before the battery fails to crank. Keeping the original battery type (AGM or EFB) and a clean, tight ground connection avoids a lot of confusion about why the system behaves differently from week to week.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf something does not look right\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf a \"stop-start unavailable\" or similar message appears, check the battery first. A battery that tests weak, a recent battery replacement that was not registered where the manufacturer requires it, or a fault in the battery current sensor can all disable the system. Clear up those issues before judging how the module works, because it cannot hold a setting the vehicle refuses to accept.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCheck before you order\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel year and model match a row in the table above (2023–2025 GMC Canyon).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour GMC Canyon has the factory stop-start button.

A stop-start system that comes back on at each restart is rated with stop-start active. A system the driver can leave off would be tested both ways and averaged, which lowers the label figure. That is why Auto Stop\/Start on the GMC Canyon resets to on, and why a memory module is the way to keep your own preference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHardware built for frequent restarts\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVehicles with stop-start are built for many more engine starts than a conventional car. They typically use an AGM (absorbent glass mat) or EFB (enhanced flooded) battery that tolerates frequent cycling, along with a strengthened starter. The memory module does not change any of that hardware. When the battery reaches the end of its life, replace it with the same type and size listed for your vehicle, because a standard flooded battery is not designed for this duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf something is not right\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMemory does not hold:\u003c\/strong\u003e Re-seat both plugs until the locks click, then repeat the restart test.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Unavailable\" or flashing indicator:\u003c\/strong\u003e A factory condition (battery charge, cabin temperature, engine temperature) is blocking stop-start.

If any are outside range it keeps the engine running. The module does not affect those checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich GMC Canyon years does this fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe listed range is 2023–2025. Check the fitment table on this page against your exact model year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill it fix a \"stop-start unavailable\" message?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. That message usually points to the battery or a sensor. Diagnose and repair that first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill Auto Stop\/Start come back on when I restart my GMC Canyon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot if you turned it off before shutting down. The module repeats your last selection at the next start. If you leave it on, it stays on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does it connect?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt plugs in line with the factory connector named in the instructions, using factory-style plugs on both ends, so nothing is cut or spliced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the stop-start button still work after installation on the GMC Canyon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The factory button works normally. The module simply stores whatever you chose last.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens if I unplug it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vehicle returns to the factory default, with Auto Stop\/Start switched on at every start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this the same part for every GMC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Connectors and the module that holds the stop-start state differ by platform, so this SKU is matched to the fitment rows on this page. Send the VIN to support if you are unsure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it change how the battery is charged?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Charging is still managed by the vehicle. Stop-start vehicles normally use an AGM or EFB battery built for frequent restarts; replace it with the same type when it wears out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it change engine power or fuel trims?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It does not reprogram the engine or transmission computers. It only stores the stop-start button state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I remove it later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Unplug the module and reconnect the factory connector; the vehicle returns to its stock default.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does Auto Stop\/Start turn itself back on every time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAutomakers set stop-start to default to on at each start. Under EPA test rules, a system that stays off after shutdown is tested both on and off and the results are averaged, which lowers the rated fuel economy, so most systems reset at every key cycle. The module carries your last choice across that reset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes my GMC Canyon need the factory stop-start button for this to work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The module works with the factory stop-start system and its button. A vehicle built without stop-start has no setting for it to remember.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping, returns and warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard shipping inside the lower 48 states costs nothing; allow 1–2 business days of handling plus 3–4 in transit.
