Auto shutdown should be illegal 😡

[@MAXIMUSMINIMALIST]

It is illegal. FMCCSA regulations require that your truck sleeper be comfortable and you can refuse to drive the truck if it is not and if the company takes any action against you it’s a lawsuit on a silver platter. The problem is that too many drivers put up with it and that’s why the companies get away with it.

Yeah. If your apu takes a shit in sub zero weather or Saharan heat what are you supposed to do lol

[@roadrunner6103]

This don't work in my 2023 freightliner but I found different way. 1 start engine. 2 step on brake. 3 push brake button (truck) keep trailers brake on. 4 if no attached to trailer you have to shock tires. This way you trick truck into driving but is park. Some times I have to try more than one time, then I wait for the alarm of set bakes and I punch yellow b out and in and works.

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Yeah they keep changing things and we keep finding new things that work. Right on!

Guys if your truck gets too COLD and the bunk heater isn’t doing it. Go to Engine idle adjust screen, crank up the idle all the way and just leave it on that screen. I did this and my truck has been running now with heater over an hour!

[@alimahmud6926]

I had one that won’t idle if the ambient temp is between 50-65 f if I remember correctly.

[@idkilikepie1]

Go back go idling at 900 RPMs, its better for the engine. If you're not paying for fuel it doesn't matter, if you own the truck then spending the cash on more fuel is worth the engine life. Either spend extra on fuel to high idle or get an APU.

[@carlorizzo5308]

Thank you I'm in a sub this evening and that's the only way I will have air conditioning in this heat there's no APU unit on this

[@zain142]

I’ve heard it’s better to idle at a higher rpm for higher oil pressure and that low idling with low oil pressure can cause premature failure over time, can anyone verify this. Is it worth it to high idle and waste more fuel or should you just raise to rpm a little to keep it running in the idle adjust mode.

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Yes, it is better to idle at a higher RPM than a lower one.

[@AceBoy2099]

If it's disabled will it still prompt and change the speed just not not-auto-shutoff? Or will I not get the prompt? Any other tricks to try without a trailer? My window is titled "engine idle adjust 1/1" but doesn't keep the truck running. I gotta hit a peddle or something every minute to keep running.

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

It all depends on how your company has it set up. There shouldn't be any any idle increase or decrease, just it should keep running depending on how your company has it set up.

[@76RL]

There’s nothing like sitting at a red light and your truck shuts down right as the light turns green.

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Yeah that would suck

[@SaiSai-tx9kx]

If you just leave it on without doing anything how long before the idle shutdown kicks in. I fell asleep with the truck on it was cold I work up a few hours later and the truck was off and the key was also in the off position. Did the truck do this alone? 2020 freightliner

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

If the key was in the off position, then that was something that you physically did... Maybe you were really tired? As far as the idle shut down, depending on how your company has it set up, once you use this method to keep the idle going, it should stay running indefinitely until you turn it off.

[@joelsilva6017]

Thank u so much brother. Ur awesome!!!

Sorry to hear that. You might try setting your trailer brakes only. Sometimes that will let the truck think that it's driving... Doesn't always work, but hey, it's worth a try!

[@amtraktraveler9118]

My APU works but AC won’t kick in no fan carrier comfort pro! 1 fault code on it! Hirshbach said they will change temp parameters on idle shutdown to 55 degrees. Tried it and still shuts down! My shop said takes a half and hour for the computer to enable it! HMMM!

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

I'm sorry that sounds pretty messed up on behalf of your company.

[@GirlGo_Love]

It still goes into engine idle performing shut down. Any idea why? Sometimes it will idle, sometimes it won't.

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Sounds like a programming issue. I'd have it checked.

[@curtisanderson9062]

I would like to know if you set throttle at about 900rpm would the engine stay running when the truck is sitting still?

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

It works just fine even as low as 700 RPM, which is usually where I run it when I idle the truck now.

You rock! Thank you in 2022

[@itsKeMonte]

My company disabled this feature to the point where my truck won’t idle literally for ONE minute before performing the idle shutdown process

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Sorry to hear that, I hate it when companies do that they have no regard for their drivers. The only thing I can suggest is trying to idle the truck with the trailer brakes disengaged and only the truck breaks engaged. Sometimes, but not all the time... This will trick the truck into keep running.

[@zakharverbovskyi6947]

Is it ok to leave it overnight? Rpm are not to high? How much on fuel will you loose if stay like this overnight?

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Yes, you can leave it overnight with no problem. The amount of fuel that will expand depends on how high you rev it up with the button. Generally you'll need to put it up two lines to keep the engine running. Experiment with it see what works best for you. 😎

[@ReverendJoaquinRLarriba]

Actually, just one click of the up arrow is enough to increase the idle so it won't shut down. No sense in max idle it just wastes fuel especially if you are waiting around. If you have an APU, use it for cooling or heating rather than idle to save fuel . . .

Eventually it will affect the diesel particulate filter, but not until after a long while. The repair is easy. If you can, shut it off after it cools down and you don't need the air conditioning anymore. Then turn it on later if it gets hot.

[@CarnivoreWerewolf]

Yes, that is true. Usually idling when you first turn the truck on in the morning you would have it at the highest setting as lower settings make the engine chug more. Later on when you stop for a break, or stop for the night then you would idle it at the lower setting.
