My hubby and I just got reseated from a Freightliner with tons of issues (2012-450k miles) to this 2013 prostar with 150k miles. Other than downsizing all the crap we had in the Freightliner, we like this truck pretty well. It runs. And that's better than what we had. It just has things that we are not use to.
So since there are some real knowledgable people on here regarding Internationals, I need help identifying a couple of toggle switches on my dash. One says ENAB/Off road. It is currently in the off road position. Then there is one that reads Lock/PDL. It is in the PDL position. I'm clueless to both and don't have an owners manual. Thanks!!

The PDL stands for Power divider lock. Basically like 4 wheel drive. Use only in bad weather and at slower speeds. Otherwise leave unlocked
STap Thanks this. -
The PDL switch locks in the rears so they both work. PDL is power divider lock. Usually, just the one rear is engaged. Only use that if you need extra traction.
Can't say about the other one. I have an idea, but I'm not sure, so I'll let someone else answer that one. I believe it's traction control, that will apply a slight amount of brake automatically to a spinning drive tire to get them to stop wheel spin.STap Thanks this. -

I don't think so. If you're curious, just flip the switch when you're parked and if the bags deflate, you'll know. if the indicator flashes, I think it's the traction control, but don't be surprised if I'm wrong.
STap Thanks this. -
I think it shuts off the traction control

If the traction light starts flashing when u flip the switch. That's what the enab switch is.

I got your answer. Here it is;
ENAB/DATA LOG
When enabled, allows the driver to log
the last five seconds of data groups
operational parameter values into
ECM memory -
Here's a link for your manual;
