Do you accept gm auto stop-start disable modules from Hawaii?
Yes — we receive modules from Honolulu, Hilo, Kailua and the rest of Hawaii regularly. With about 1.1 million registered vehicles statewide, compact SUVs & imports are the bulk of what we see from Hawaii.
Is there a gm auto stop-start disable shop in Honolulu I should use instead?
Most Honolulu shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm auto stop-start disable — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Far-flung — plan 4-5 days each way, roughly a 2-week round-trip.
Does Hawaii vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Hawaii requires an annual safety inspection for registered vehicles; there is no state emissions testing program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Hawaii and federal requirements.
Is the stop-start disable permanent?
Yes. On supported GM ECMs we disable auto stop-start at the calibration level, so the engine no longer shuts off at stops and you no longer have to press the disable button every drive. It stays disabled until the calibration is changed back.
Which GM vehicles are supported?
Primarily GM roughly 2014–2018 (pre-Global B) trucks and SUVs with unlocked, bench-writable ECMs — Silverado / Sierra 1500, Tahoe / Suburban / Yukon / Yukon XL, and Escalade-era models. We confirm support by VIN and ECM label before accepting the order.
