Walk Through Optimized Idle and Parksmart

[@charlesjr916]

Why does air still flow through the bunk vents when I have on optimized idle? Im using the espar heater but the sleeper vents are blowing out air so essentially the espar is blowing out hot air and the sleeper vents are blowing out cool air? How do I turn it off so that the sleeper vents aren't blowing out anything? I'm not understanding why it's still blowing if the knob in the cab and the sleeper are both set to off

When I turn the sleeper heater on why does cool air come out of bottom bunk vent and vents above the switch my system is the same as the one in this video. Please reply, thank you

[@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023]

The sleeper heater, espar heater, is a separate system that hears through the a vent in the bottom centre of the bunk. Does that answer your question?

Easy to use Until you actually need it. Ac on mine worked then just quit when temperatures got warm enough to use.

Sorry to hear that Frank. I'd bet your local Freightliner dealer could get you sorted out in no time.

What does the dashboard controls have to be sitting on before you turn the back on

[@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023]

Hey David, Sorry I don’t understand the question

@@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023 when I set the optimized idle the truck will start up and run for about 45 mins and shut off and will not start back up the rest of the night just wondering what I'm doing wrong

[@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023]

@@davidryan9245 two things to look at. 1. Make sure you’re in comfort mode on the dash. 2. Make sure bunk temp control’s fan is on and the temp in the bunk is set appropriately.

@@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023 it is and I have the temperature control turned 7 clicks

[@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023]

@@davidryan9245 is the truck getting too hot/cold then? It’s designed to shut off and should come back on only if the truck gets out of temp

My boy needs to start driving trucks cuz selling trucks seems dead end. I would take up a diesel automotive tech and then get a cdl then get on a company.

You didn’t say cabin temperature means what? what temperature is the cabin temperature and how you determine that?

[@richieconlin2966]

Hey Hammy, The temperature controls in the bunk is what determines the temperature. I usually like it around 1 o’clock (slightly into the hot side)

[@Doostan5678]

@@richieconlin2966 🙏 Thank you

[@jeeptransport-tutorials7761]

Also the lowest point temperature per manual should be 60°F on the most Cold Setting and 85° on the Highest Setting. The Middle Setting would be right around 72F° so where the video shows the person setting the thermostat. I'd guess its right around 69-70°F Area

Why does the engine go to full throttle with fan engaged when parksmart tells it to start on its own this is bs there is nNO REASON that engine to do this VERY VERY annoying to anybody trying to sleep

Park smart battery is junk

[@richardconlin-firsttruckce5023]

Sorry you feel that way amiko. There are different battery options available from the factory. It might help with your next truck!
