On most ford super duties the wiring is already under the dash just have to add a switch to provide 12 volts. This high idle also helps prevent wet stacking.

My 2012 Cummins has auto and manual idle-up. It can be manually controlled by the cruise control buttons or will automatically idle up if the remote start is used in cold weather. It works great.

My Ford has the auto high idle in cold weather too, if it is idling for so long and the incoming air is below a certain point it will kick it up , first time it did it It took me a second to figure out what was going on. We were loading or unloading something and truck had been idling and all of a sudden it idled up, sort of freaked us out for a split second when we were not expecting it.

Will it idle down as it warms up?

I run mine for the first couple of minutes at a low rpm to help keep the filter from bypassing the thick oil

So, there is a switch that can be used to let the oil warm up on low idle?

Can you over ride yhe high idle, can you turn it off? Would want to let it low idle for a few minutes on a -50 morning.
