i don't need comfort when i'm out of the truck.

nor do i need it between 45 and 65. a fan is usually good enough at 65

course, u know. with the sensor inside the frame. it's shaded so probably has to get a lot hotter then 75.

you could always just let the sun shine on the sensor. my thermometer always reads hotter when it's just sitting there vs. rolling down the road with the wind

He is living in the same world as the rest of us. Believe in global warming or not, you ARE contributing to killing your own family, and others as well. When you waste fuel idling, don't make the mistake of thinking it doesn't hurt anyone. Your wife and kids breathe the same air you do, filled with cancer causing exhaust. Stop, take a look around for a second, and realize how beautiful the earth really is. I do everything I can to avoid putting out any more emissions than I have to, to get my job done.

Someone here sound like a total piece of...Well, let's not go there. It's one thing to want to be comfortable in your truck, I get it. But, it's another thing to not care about the equipment or burn fuel, or the mentality, "who cares, its not my or his fuel!" Who cares if I'm running a tire low on air and it blows out? Who cares if that front hub gasket has leaked out all the oil and I destroy the bearings and spindle, its not my truck I want to go home or make that money. I hope you get fired. Why do you need to idle the truck for home time? You don't live in the truck, that makes no sense at all. They will figure it out, and I'm sure there will be a former Werner driver on here. Finally, that's not a company I'd be driving for anyways.

Seriously, why go thru so much trouble rewiring and stuff like that when it probably just is a NTC resistor? Just measure the resistance at say 80 degrees, go to a electronic shop and by a normal resistor with the value you got....
