Why doesnt MDS work at idle. Dealership told me it would prior to purchase. I did the LED light mod and it doesnt. Any way to modify for idle? I do alot of idling for a part time job.
Interesting I thought it did kick in at idle traffic lights and so on. Actually, what the dealer said is correct it does work (prior to purchase ) I don't let my chariots idle much at all, (0 mpg at idle an' all that).
Idle is smooth enough. I work as a Police officer in construction zones at night, sometimes 8-12 hours at a time. Down in Texas its too hot some nights to turn it off for very long. I do have LED warning lights so the battery isnt a problem, just need a/c. I was hoping for the 4 cyls. at idle to save on the fuel. I traded off my diesel as it was burning a 1/4 tank per night.
