High idle mod write up?

[dz4swamper]

Hey guys, I've tried searching around here for the past few days and haven't been able to locate a write up for the high idle mod.
Can one of you guys be so kind as to point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Sean

Too make us feel above average! jk!

Quicker warm ups. (even though the truck will idle up on it's own when cold)

Jump starting a friends Ram.

Keep a/c going for when you want to "run in for something".

Something to use an "upfitter " switch for.

Coolant change.

Just another option to have.

And it is a very inexpensive mod to do.

It helps to prevent wet stacking during extended idling. Thats the main reason I'm doing it

Does anybody have the info for the high idle mod for '04 with a 6 sd?
I can find it for the '05, but the wiring harness is different on the '04

Just another quick question, what type of switch have you guys used? I have a momentary switch that I can put in, or does it need a toggle switch? As I read the write up it seemed to me like a momentary switch would be fine as it just needs to see 12v for the rpms to kick up

I used a toggle with a LED light. Try the momentary switch, and give us some feed back on how it worked.


EDIT: today some time, I will do a momentary flick of the toggle to see if that works!
