Ground Reference VP44,ECM,PCM,PDC plus TC lock/unlock
This is what I deciphered from W-T's post also. That's why I asked for a basic simplification of exactly what W-T actually re-wired .

Nu Finish
I got a work out this morning, Washed my truck with Ivory dish soap and Waxed most of the truck I used a free sample pack of Maguiars Ultimate on the roof and Maquiars Tec Wax ll NXT. on the hood front fenders, bed sides and tail gate top part of doors, cause thats what I had. I'm going to get some Nu Finish next time im at the store Worked up a good sweat I used some Blue Magic aluminum polish on one of my Rims last Saturday. 3 more to go My nice clean shiny waxed truck should last about 1/2 hour.... Because I live on a dirt road and also dogs and horses are always kicking up dust too ..

Nu Finish
I just did some reading on nu finish. I was wondering if it had abrasives to polish No abrasives in it. So its not actually a polish , its a sealer I dont want abrasives so that's good. I noticed maguiars NXT tech wax 2 and Ultimate now have synthetic polymers in them I have some maguiars Tech Wax ive been using. It doesnt last very long at all. And I just use water when washing,,,, no detergent type soap I have some ivory soap I might use to wash then use Maguiars or Nu Finish right after

Says it works way better. I cant remember what kind it was or why upholstery cleaner works better. like $60 for 5 gal. .- free

I just disconnected my grid heaters a couple months ago. My truck always cycled engine RPM up and down when first start up at Idle ,,, I used to think that was some kind of computer warm up cycle. Dumb guess Was that just the grid heater drawing current and the alternator charging that caused that engine RPM up and down at idle? It doesnt do that idle rpm cycle anymore after I disconnection the grid heats- I think my ECM took a crap
Nuttins goin' bad on the grid heaters ..... Its the massive draw and cycling they put on the alternator and batterys,,, Is my thinking .- I think my ECM took a crap
