Had one on my truck since basically new. Keep that dpf clean while idling on those hot/cold days when you're waiting for your kids to get out of school 🤙. Helps more on the hot days though to kick that fan up across the condenser. I don't keep it on for those cold remote start mornings though. High idle on cold start up makes the engine sound weird. Doesn't sit well with me. I let it idle for a minute and then kick it up to get the heat going. All personal preference I'm sure.

[@jlweck231978]

I had a few so called diesel mechanics at a few local dealers have no idea about increasing the idle speed and all asked why I would want to do that..? That's why I call them so called diesel mechanics. One of them I was told by a sales man was one of the top master techs in the state and region. That same tech asked why I would want to raise my stationery idle. I could not believe it. There are many reason. Seemed like he didn't even know that it's not good to low idle a diesel for extended periods of time. There are other reasons as many of us know. I ended up wiring it up myself with a potentiometer that stays in that kick panel and hooked up to the first up fitter switch. I wanted to keep them available for other accessories like job strobes or lights for job sites in the dark.

[@soleary5555]

Thank you for this. 10 minute install. If that. Used 3M adhesive to install the bracket/switch below the 110v/12v near the passenger seat and coiled and zip tied the excess cabling behind the carpet in passenger wheel well. Easy as pie.

[@glendasue70]

I used a resistor and a potentiometer to my Uplifter switch but if I want I also used a remote control on off switch for when I’m in the house so I can warm it up and not go out just hit remote start and the on off remote to the high idle. I didn’t remove the break thing because I liked it so just have to remember to use my parking break the night before. I also plug my truck into a smart switch that turns on the block heater 4 hours before I leave. It heats 50 degrees hotter than the cold ambient temperature outside. Fun project

[@BrianBaldridgeC]

That’s dope!!! Definitely the fastest way to install the high idle mode. I presume the northern guys would set the high idle at the desired rpm before turning it off, so when they remote start on cold mornings, the truck starts in high idle?

[@PodMo]

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Killer

[@Adam_Poirier]

On my 2012 I put A resistor in between the two wires under the steering column to make the truck think it had PTO. I used power from one of the Upfitter switches. It's been a few years now so I can't remember exactly what resistor rating was but I set it up so it idles at around 1200RPM for when I'm pumping fuel or jumpstarting a piece of equipment etc. I got all the information out of the Ford bodybuilder book at the time if I remember correctly. I would love to have this for my truck though this is way better I wonder if they have it for my year?

[@ilikerts9592]

So I tried wiring in a resistor first to get high idle with the upfitter switches. I could not for the life of me get it to work so I ordered this kit and installed it. With this installed I still do not have high idle. Is there a fuse or relay that this runs through this that I should check?

[@djd8058]

Doesn't plugging the new switch into the PTO Pigtail negate any future use of those wires in the pigtail? I have a 2019 F-350 XLT (without upfitter switches). If I take the pigtail out, I lose all these wires that go through the firewall for future use, such a CB radio. Am I missing something here?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

This bundle is only for PTO upfit & thats it. The wires your talking about are the pass thru wires. Theres 4 of em. Weather or not you have U-F switches or not, you will still have the pass thru wires.

[@djd8058]

Thanks for the reply. I thought that pigtail bundle was the set of pass through wires. Thanks for straightening me out. So is that to say that if I don’t have factory up fitter switches, then that bundle of wires is of no use (unless I add the OEM Up Fitter switches)? By the way, I ordered and received the hi-idle kit. It works great. I just didn’t want to forego any other functional use of that bundle.

What your truck is doing is not high idle mode like this kit. Your computer in the truck is trying to raise the RPM to bring the emission system up the temperature. This kit is totally different. It goes from nine hundred to 3 thousand r p m definitely worth it
