Does anyone know a way to bypass the function that shuts your truck off if you leave it running and locked.  It will shut down after 15 minutes.  I always have my dog with me and very often do the above so the a/c or heat is working.  If I leave the spare key fob inside the truck it will stay on.

I have insurance for that and my dog inside the truck just may prevent them anyway! There are others who have much more dire reasons for wanting a way around this function.

From the iink that Rmcgunner posted:   This doesn’t work on all GM vehicles, but more so on the newer ones, especially those running the automaker’s new Global B electronic architecture whic

It's better not to be any solution for that. Otherwise they'll steal the truck easily and run way far!

Check this out!!!

 

it is a terrible feature!

I saw this in another post.  Sent the guy a PM - - he still has not received a suitable resolution.  Have you noticed the GM TECH on this site has not chimed in on either mine or this other post about this problem?

I'm confident there is a way to bypass this function but need GM's blessing so as not to create warranty issues.  VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY FIRST GM PURCHASE AFTER 45 YEARS OF FORDS!!

I wonder what the reasoning is behind the fact that it shuts down and you can't let it run?  If law enforcement wanted to use it, I'm sure GM would disable this feature.

I was told it is due to people pulling into their garage and, with not having to remove a key, they forget and leave the vehicle running.  For me, that "benefit" does not outweigh the inconvenience to being able to leave my truck running when sitting in hot weather.  There should be an option.

Um, my 2017 superduty does same thing. Shuts off after 10 mins without fob inside. I love my 2019 chev trailboss. Way better build then 2016 f150 I had previous

It should be better, its 3 years newer than the f150!  Sadly, right now, I wish I'd kept my 14 F150 Platinum

In that other thread, there were two people who mentioned putting the truck in neutral with parking brake set. I have an 18 so I can't verify this but until there is another way around it, this may be the only viable option??

Can you lock the truck with the secondary fob inside or do you leave it unlocked and rely on your dog as a deterrent to someone taking off in it?

That's because you were sitting in it. The vehicle knows this.

I think the OP has an issue with the system automatically shutting down, as described in the owners manual. The service department is going to tell him that it's working properly...which it is. He feels this is a terrible feature in that it has no way to over-ride the system which would allow the vehicle to sit running for multiple hours. If the concern is that people are leaving it running and thus putting their lives in jeopardy from deadly exhaust fumes then a MANUAL over-ride should be available to stop the vehicle from shutting itself off and display a message in the DIC that requires an acknowledgement to clear the message. If it was a function of the user to manually over-ride the system, then the fault for any exhaust related death should fall on the user who chose to over-ride the system. This over-ride feature could be programmed to require a manual over-ride after each engine start, in other words it would revert back to the auto shutdown feature once the user turned off the vehicle.


My response to the OP's issues in the other thread mentioned...

      Gas Prices

      If we actually used any significant amount of that source in the USA then I'd agree but we don't. We've had that discussion before. We drill and pump more than we use. Thing is, we sell. We export. Gas and Crude. It's more profitable so any shortage here is self inflicted and LEGAL.    I worked a gas plant that has multiple fuel sources available and I worked in the furnace and boiler plant in that facility. I'd had days we swapped fuel types four times in a twelve hour shift which isn't done on supply but on margin. Two of the fuel sources are internally generated. Tail gas and DAK, both of which are sold as well a consumed. We always had more than we needed to run the process but we chose the fuel that produced the best margin not bought at the cheapest price always. A good bit of math to that and back in the time that was done on a slide rule.     I worked the Shale Oil Semiworks of Chevron Research and CONOCO Research in Salt Lake City. That process never went into production although it was very successful. Why? Did we lack oil bearing shale? Nope. Price of crude never made the margins work. That was in the late 70's early 80's. Remember history? What was happening then was a reaction to that situation. It didn't drive it. If so then it's easy. This isn't a supply and demand thing. This is a profit and margin thing and AI rules that now.    In no refining situation that I was ever in would a bomb hitting a well anywhere in the world 'instantly' interrupt or even distress the supply. Most plants have more than a months worth of crude in the tank field and more in pumping stations. That yo-yo could play out over days, weeks and maybe months and have zero impact on plant operations. How many times has this been off and on in the last few months? These people and not stupid. These plants measure down time in hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. They are not sucking fumes or waiting on the next truckload with baited breath. Besides, as I noted, they are for the most part 'vertically integrated'. They own it from the dirt is sits in to the delivery rack and sometimes to the pump. It has a HUGE shock absorber built in. When production suffers, refining wins and when refining is winning exploration is killing. The rest of that crap in the news is a 'news cycle'. Government dipping in to reserves? Oil is stealing their milk money. There's a reason Chevron abandon Venezuela infrastructure and it had nothing to do with security of US citizens. Nationals run those plants. it has to do with MARGINS disappearing to corruption. They are in no hurry to return. Is there supply there? Oh yea. More than enough to offset what is bought in the middle east. Just isn't ???? Profitable.    We have supply. There are places in Illinois you can drive a pipe into the ground and run your homes natural gas furnace on it.    A refinery fire will gum up the supply works but not a localized war where the market is using a limited supply from. Now Europe, that's something other....

      If we're talking futures, yes, it's speculation.   The spot price of a delivered barrel is elevated now compared to before the conflict. And that is related more to current supply/demand.

      SPECULATION on the wars effect raised prices. AI is maximizing the profit. Refining is vertically integrated.
