High Idle Switch

No, this can only be done on a '03 and '04 PSD.

Cold enough where I live that it runs for about a min then steps up to 1200 on it's own.

can this be done to a OBS psd???

It is not nearly this simple on a OBS but it can be done. Click here for directions. Easiest way is to purchase a AIC on ebay. Do a search on ebay for "Powerstroke AIC" or "powerstroke idle" and you will find a few. The diy method is much cheaper but doesn't work quite as nice.

What do you do for 05 and up for charging reasons.

 

[DaveBen]

Upfitter Switches.

Use the same wires though?

 

[DaveBen]

No. It is a whole different thing. I don't know any thing about the upfitter switches, but you can get kits to do the job. Some one will chime in about this I am sure.

Hi guys I am new to this site there is alot of great info that I have read. The 05, 06, and 07's utilize the uppfitter swiches as you know. The switches have two 30 amp rated (aux1 and 2) and two 10 amp rated (aux 3 and 4). Since this mod requires low amperage to run use 3 or 4. You will have to get to the customer access wires that are located behine the emergency brake you would be looking for the BCP wire. This wire is purple with a light green stripe. Take a piece of wire 6 to 8 inches long and connect it to this wire. Next you need to find the orange light blue wire on aux 4 connect this to your BCP wire and your all set to run the high idle feature. This feature will only work with the e brake set and in neutual this does not screw up the cold weather statergy that is preprogrammed. Hope this help.
