    Is there any way to fake out the qualcomm so it doesn’t report your idle time.
    Some one had mention to me about taking out a fuse. But I can’t for the life of me
    remember what they said to do.
    I have a Volvo


    Thanks

    I sure don't know of a way. I just idle, get the messages and snort at them.

    I remember getting a lecture because my 1% idle was too high for my daycab. One of the many reasons I'm no longer at Swift.

    LOL really? I just got one saying my 29% is higher than the 21% June goal. *shrugs* I figure if I turn the ac off....there's a good chance I'll have one of my homonal personal summers (hot flash) slip into a menopausal rage and Swift will have a major lawsuit over my beating some yuppie in a honda with my cb mic. They're better off with me idling. *nods*

    tell them to keep the loads coming your way and the tractor wont be idling. also ask if the people crying about the idle are sitting in a mid 90s office with no AC. that should shut them right up at least for a day or two.
