High idle chip setting?

Do the ts 6pos chips require you to have the ebrake light in the dash on to work Like the aic does? Is there any way to adjust what the high idle setting is,

I got mine from PHP. It will hi-idle any time I turn it to that position. I can't change what it idles at, but they have a few choices of what rpm you want it to hi-idle at. I chose 1100

You realize that that light isn't just (and isn't even primarily) the "e-brake" light, right? That light is primarily for when your hydraulic brakes FAIL. So if that light is out on your dash, you could completely lose your brakes and not know it.

Yep I know probably should get that fixed. I did have a brake line blow and my abs light came on to warn me. Maybe that's the backup brake failure light?

ABS light will probably go on with a blown rear line, since it's RABS. But I wouldn't count on it going on if you lose a front brake line.

You won't hear anything different from me then ...
For $300 with tunes, it's kind of hard to beat. I went with PHP for the hi-idle and no start settings. Also they were very fast.
