Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1036610 Power Stroke High Idle Switch is the clean, reliable way to command elevated idle on Ford diesel trucks when you need faster warmups, steadier cab heat, smoother PTO operation, and more stable charging during extended idle time. Instead of letting a cold-soaked engine sit and struggle to build temperature, this kit lets you set a controlled high-idle RPM range for real-world work conditions.
Designed for straightforward installation, the BD Diesel high idle switch kit includes the control switch and wiring needed to activate adjustable high idle—ideal for cold climates, jobsite trucks, utility use, and any application where idle time is unavoidable. It’s a smart reliability upgrade for drivers who want better warm-up performance and a more stable idle strategy during long idle periods.
