| Turn off cruise control and engine. Start engine Turn on Cruise, light on dash should flash slowly Put truck into gear and back out quickly. (light should go onto a slow long flash) You are done up front, do not turn off key or bump the shifter Go into sleeper, set temp on panel. This should work and the directions should be on your visor. For battery save mode (no temp set) just turn on icon, get it flashing slow and turn off key. Engine will run to keep engine over 70 degrees and battery charged. It has been 6 months since I got out of my icon equipped truck, but I am pretty sure I did not forget anything. |

| Just make sure when you figure out how to get it set, ALWAYS use the same routine each time. Otherwise, it can throw the puter for a loop and really screw you up. I'm in a 2008 Volvo with the TAS and it works much better. All you have to do is be in neutral, hit the button and go back and set the t-stat much easier. |

| Yup, I am in an 06 with TAS now. Much easer to use, and so far none of the glitches that I saw with ICON. My old icon would mess up at times. The sensor reading outside temp would mess up and read very high (120 degrees outside). When that happened the heat would not be an option, only cool. I have an underbunk heater in my current truck also though, so I would set TAS at battery save mode and use the bunk heater in winter. I had very very low idle time in winter, and TAS kept block warm. So even when in sub-zero temps this last winter my bunk was warm and I had no cold weather engine issues. While still maintaining 5% idle. |

| Thanks guys for your help.I will try these and try and see which one works best.
