Got it done at Dealer but don't know how it works or specifically when and how long to use it.

TIA

 

turn the cruise on. press set. that should take it up to about 1k. then use accel and decel to adjust. i use it for extended periods of idle time, or if your having to winch

Ok I assume having the truck in Neutral is what triggers it to do the high idle instead of cruise control.

You don't need set parking brake or anything else?

 

mine does it in park. im not sure about the parking brake as mine is always set. im fixing to run to the store in a bit and ill check it out unless someone esle chimes in first

LanceK is yours a manual trans or auto?

 

Mine's an Auto.

 

Mine works exactly like Brett said. My park brake is set and tranny in park.

 

Lance did you call 911? Cuz you got us hehe.

 

haha thats funny.

this is definately a pro-union thread it seems

Ok I tried the method(s) above and nothing.

1. Start truck
2. Turn on Cruise
3. Press set

Tried with both parking brake on and off.

Am I doing something wrong or did the dealer never enable it?

 

What do you consider extended?

What RPM do you have it adjusted toooo when doing so?


thanks

I found that on my truck, I don't need the emergency brake. I start the truck, turn the cruise control on, and then press and hold the set button for about 2-3 seconds and it comes right on. If your truck is an '06, it should have come from the factory with it turned on. Try holding that set button for a few seconds. I was pressing it and letting it go too quick at first. Let us know how you make out.

 

I have an '05.
Do dealers charge for TSB's?

 

this did not come standard on our trucks. i had to have mine enabled at the dealer. as for the tsb, im not sure there is one. its just something that they enable with the star scan tool. takes literally about 45 seconds once they hook it up. and you can use it in neutral w/ the park brake set

if i go to the bank, ill kick the idle up to about 1k. i never know if im gonna be 5 mins or 30 depending on how slow some people move. besides i like hearing it run

mine actually does it on it's own with my 6 speed in nuetral and my park brake set when it's cold
