Just wondering how to enable the idle-up feature on my truck. Do I have to take it in to the dealer, or can I do it myself? Thanks.

is the only way to enable high idle on a auto is thru the dealer?

I think the bully dog stuff can enable it... but I dont know for sure??
smarty may be able to also???
I am sure someone in the know will chime in

Thanks. Wow, that seems like a whole lot of messing around w/my ECM wires. Dont know if I am going to dive into that one, wish it was easier.

Are you serious????
that is the easiest mod there is...all you do is ground the pigtail and plug it in...what so hard about that????

zander79

No I'm not. Just have had bad luck w/ECMs, on my second one.

zander79

How come y havnt done it then.

I did right after I read that post. it's easy

So the $200 cummins clutch switch is must, or is it the same as a pigtail? Sorry man, I'm really bad w/electronics and wiring. I stick to welding and lift kits.

all you need is the $13 pigtail...the switch is a waste of money IMO
soon as you touch the brake it kills the high idle with the pigtail so I don't see where the safety switch would do anything anyway???

Got it. Thanks for all the help. Looking forward to setting it up. I run my winch alot at work, and am sick of stuffing a 2x4 between the diesel pedal and the seat frame (I know pretty ghetto, but it worked) Aloha, Zander.
