    Is it possible to override the idle shut off? I just bought this truck and it keeps shutting off when I'm trying to warm it up in the morning or if I'm waiting in line.
    It's a 2015 579 with a Cummins ISX15

    You should be able to avoid this problem by running your rpm's up to around 1000 and set the cruise control. The truck will confuse the computer into thinking it's going somewhere.
