“Automatic Shutdown - Disabled” - Always on??

Okay y’all - I have a tricky one. 
 

Last week, I bought a pre-owned 22 LT with the refreshed interior. Love the truck and features and all that fun stuff. 
 

As the truck only came with one key, I went to the dealership today to have the second key made as part of the deal. 
 

I didn’t catch this when I left as the truck was driven up and brought to me and left on, but when I left and started going other places, I noticed now every time I start the vehicle, it says “Automatic Shutdown - Disabled”. 
 

I’m aware of the feature but was reading that I’d have to do this every time I start the truck, but, it’s on by default now. I don’t mind the feature being on, but, now I have to dismiss the screen every time I start the truck. 
 

I think it’s odd it started after getting a second key programmed and added, but, no idea why. 
 

Anything I can do at home or is a trip to the dealer needed to reset this using a scan tool?

unless there some setting to change in the menu, back to the dealership

Yeah I could not find anything.  I'm sure the dealer can re-flash the computer to get it back to stock...just didn't want to if I didn't have to.

Automatic shutdown is standard -- but the dealer can change the programming if requested (for a fee?)

 

I'd guess the reprogramming to disable comes with that message -- so drivers are aware it's not the standard set-up.

Previous owner likely had the automatic shutdown (idle time out) turned off and the truck displays the message at startup when that feature is disabled.

 

Dealer can re-enable the automatic shutdown, at your expense.  TSB is 21-NA-228 and they can read that to see what they need to do if you want it set back to factory.

My truck is not listed in that TSB, as it's a '22 refresh...but, it only showed up when they went to program the second key...but, here's what I learned from the dealer yesterday...

When programming a new key or doing other things with the computer, there is a "security" window that you have to wait through to get things done.  It could be either ten minutes or over an hour.  The service guy said that when doing that, it will enable that feature for up to 24 hours so the truck doesn't turn off when doing programming of some sort.

It went away on it's own yesterday and hasn't been back on since.

Whether the dealer was right or not, who knows...but it's gone, and I'm able to turn it on as I wish for just a single ignition cycle, if needed.

That TSB covers 2019-2024.  It has all the model years listed, pre and post refresh.

Got ya! 

The version I pulled up stopped at 2022...and 2022 was only the 2500/3500 - so probably just an older PDF.

 

Thank you for sharing it, though.

Automatic shutdown is the default setting; however, the dealer is able to modify the programming if the customer so desires (for a price, perhaps?).

In order to make sure that drivers are aware that this is not the typical configuration, I believe that the instruction to deactivate is included with that message.

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      By dna9656 · Posted

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
