For your 2011 GMC Terrain you will need to use the Roadmaster FuseMaster fuse bypass switch, # RM76511. I have also included a link to the installation instructions for you. The use of this product will make it easier to bypass the fuse by allowing you to bypass it instead of pulling it every time.
