How disable Ice Alert

[Truck Dude]

How can the Ice Alert be disabled?  I live in Wisconsin and keep my truck in a garage that stays above freezing.  So every day of the winter, on the way to work, as the temp sensor adjusts to the actual outdoor temperature, the system sends a useless and annoying ice alert that I need to dismiss.  Every day.

Mine clears itself if i just ignore it.  However I agree it's generally an unnecessary annoyance.

can't you turn off notifications under settings or something like that?

 

i thought i remember seeing something like that when i was going thru stuff with my truck...  but it's also a 2014

[bc-chris]

ok - curiosity got the best of me and i had to go check my truck

 

i couldn't find anything to turn off notifications under the settings

 

on the plus side, my heated seats will now come on when i auto start my truck!

I think its part of the xm weather. Check the xm radio weather alert setting to turn it off.

I live in Alaska and park my truck outside. After walking in the cold to get to my truck, then scraping the windows or brushing off the snow I see that and i'm like no shit. I would love to disable it.

It is under the Settings App if memory serves me correctly it is under Comfort and Convenience

It would really be nice if the heated steering wheel was tied in to this feature.

Rear defog will.

I think you would have to have the computer reprogrammed in order to delete this alert. Don’t know if that’s possible but maybe the guys at MVI can do something like that, or the guys who help with the speedometer swaps on the forums
