What do you recommend for 2016 gmc canyon diesel for battery disconnect

asked by: Greg J

Expert Reply:

In order to disconnect and reconnect the battery on a 2016 GMC Canyon for flat-towing without having to use any tools, I recommend the Battery Disconnect Switch with Lock part # 3376391005. The disconnect switch will get mounted in the engine bay so you will need to pop the hood each time but you don't have to worry about undoing any bolts as all that is required to cut power is simply turning the handle to the off position. Then to restore power, turn the handle to the on position.

I'm sure you are aware of the Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect part # RM-766 but this cannot be used on models with a diesel engine due to the high cranking amps required for the battery.
