For those that are interested the diesels have the 'fast idle' and also an 'elevated idle'.
Elevated Idle
The engine has a cold temperature high idle feature which elevates the engine idle speed from base idle
to 1050 rpm for pickup models or 1200 rpm for van models when outside temperatures are below 0°C
(32°F), and the engine coolant temperature is below 65°C (150°F). This feature enhances heater
performance by raising the engine coolant temperature faster.
This feature can be turned on or off using the DIC buttons. If the vehicle is not equipped with DIC buttons, do
the following to turn this feature on or off:
1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN, with the vehicle off.
2. Press the accelerator pedal to the floor and hold while quickly pressing the brake
pedal three times in less than eight seconds.
3. Release the accelerator pedal and start the engine.
When the engine is started, it will slowly ramp up to the high idle speed after a delay of a few
seconds up to approximately two minutes. For this method to work properly there must be no
throttle or brake pedal faults.
The engine idle speed will return to normal once the following conditions are met:
Once engine coolant temperature reaches 65°C (150°F).
Air intake temperature reaches0°C (32°F).
The high idle speed will be temporarily interrupted and the
engine speed will return to normal if any of the following conditions ccur:
The brake pedal is applied.
The accelerator pedal is pressed.
The transmission is shifted out of P (Park) or N (Neutral).
Vehicle speed is detected.
Once these inputs are removed, the engine idle speed will slowly ramp back up to high idle after the normal
delay, if the conditions for engine coolant temperature and air intake temperature are still met.
