Do Fuses Still Need To Be Pulled In A 2016 Chevy Equinox If It has A Charge Line Installed
Question:
On a 2016 chevy equinox do I remove the 32 fuse if I have a chageing system on the car

Expert Reply:
The fuse removal is still required even if you have a charge line for your 2016 Chevy Equinox. There is however a tech note stating that if you have a 4-cylinder model you will need # RM-76517 instead of the # RM76511, and will need to leave fuse DLIS 32 intact and pull the ABS module fuse located under the hood.
Due to manufacturing variances, some 4-cylinder models may label the ABS module fuse as 15 or 16. You will also need to install a charge line kit # RM-156-25, which it sounds like you've already done.
Failure to follow the tech note can lead to steering issues that can damage both the Equinox and motorhome.
