2016 Camaro SS & LT NPP Fuse Pull Guide

Looking to keep your NPP open all the time no matter what on your SS and LT? Pulling that fuse is simply what you need to do. Just make sure you snag the right one. See my quick guide below.



Sound clip:



Update:
I have heard this trick can cause issues on the 2017 cars. CEL'S, valves still closing, etc.

On the 2016 cars the fuse pull causes the valves to remain open no matter what.

I see in your video you used needle nose pliers. There is a white "grabber" located in the fuse box.

I gotta say, if that was a "quick" video, I would hate to see a detailed video! My ADD shut me down 45 seconds in.
LOL all in good fun brother, nice color choice!

My main question is if pulling the fuse gets rid of the passenger side NPP exhaust rattle. If so I may pull mine until GM gets a permanent fix worked out.

Yes, the fuse pull will make that go away. At least it did for me.

I, and every other Camaro owner that hangs clothes in their cars, need a solution.

Mine must be really bad then. Pulled the fuse yesterday and I still get the rattle. Granted it doesn't sound quite as loud, but it's still there. I'm so ready for a permanent fix from GM.

Hope that gets fixed before my order gets built!

Plug in AFM Delete module to ODBII port to shut off AFM mode without getting errors. I saved mine from my 5th gen.

Just don't forget to remove it when not driving. It can drain your battery.
