Anyone have any experience with kill switches on a 2015+Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade? Wanting to do something that will disable fuel and/or ignition when my vehicle is parked and left unattended and wanted to know what my options are.

Yeah I bought a unit called 'Cardefender' It is installed in line with the starting and hidden feature. Once the Immobilier is installed, the system will only recognize the signal from the small black fob. And only you know where the main unit is hidden, so once you pass the fob over it, you'll hear a small "Peep" and then you have 10 seconds to put the key into the ignition and start the engine. I put one unit in my 90 Silverado pickup and one in my 88 Blazer. That was about 6-7 years ago and it has been working fine ever since.

The only minor problem is showing your mechanic or Valet how to start the truck. It cost about a $100.

^ interesting option, but a failure of OPSEC, if you have to show others & expect them to keep mouth shut ;)


valet is most likely to have cohorts :(



OP,
-good alarms have options.
-also ravelco.com

do a search, pretty sure i recall someone doing a switch for fuel relay or something to that effect
