The resume switch on the cruise control sets the high idle or you can use the + button, and that question made me realize my error in my last post. The truck idles at 600, but high idles at 700 not to shutdown.

I'm trying to figure out what I could do to block the spray from the mirror without causing another problem... where's Red Green when you need him?
