Expert Reply:
A battery disconnect like the part # DW05312 can be used on your Chevy Colorado with the diesel engine. The kind of disconnect that cannot be used are the automatic ones with solenoids like the Roadmaster part # RM-766 as the amperage rating of your batteries would damage the solenoids.
