Auxiliary trunk battery

Asked by Big Oct 07, 2018 at 08:17 AM about the 2015 Chevrolet Malibu 2LT FWD

Question type: Car Customization

I installed a stereo system in my 2015 Malibu.
When the eco tech start/stop occurs I keep
blowing the 80amp fuse from the main battery
upon starting. Is it possible to replace the rear
auxiliary battery with a large AGM battery and run
my power cable from there?

I don't believe that would be a good idea considering the auxiliary battery is 13V AND controls the transmission pump while the car is off once eco boost is activated and eco boost restart.
