High idle kit issue


Recommended Posts

So I got the kit a couple days ago and just finished the install this morning.  I flashed the truck with a Smarty so I know it has high idle enabled.

 

With the truck off, I turned the knob to 3 cly high idle and start the truck.  I got no high idle and I got a P0113 engine code.  I didn’t turn the knob at all once I put the key in the ignition.

 

Only thing I did out of the norm is I had to extend the wires in the harness. Unfortunately the harness isn’t long enough to reach the overhead console which is disappointing. Since an extra 4 ft would have been enough.

 

Any ideas where I need to look?  When I expanded the harness, I went color to color.  Only one that Might be wrong is there are two black wires but I ran the ground wire to the pin next to the power wire....I do get the green led in mpg mod and red led when it’s in high idle mode so I don’t think there is any issue.  

 

Btw no codes before the install.

Additionally, I took my OBD scanner out and if I clear the codes and leave the fooler off the truck acts normal.  If I turn off the truck and switch to 3 cyl high idle, I get the trouble code again and the IAT reads -20 degrees.

 

the ECT doesn’t change no matter what mode I have it in which seems strangle to me....it just reads what the actual ECT Temp is....
