my 06 6 0 doesn't have the upfitter swiches because i have the factory trailer brake system so i guess i need to install a rocker switch with a 12v power source connected to the proper wire?

I know this was old but for anyone reading this the trailer brake can be matched with an up fitter switch I got mine for 105$ on ebay with the harness and fuse block

I have a '03-6.0L.. Is this mod only for the 05 and up? Will I need to buy the Ford AIC module? The artical refers to a factory upfitter switch, since I do not know what this is, do I (if this mod is possable on the '03) purchace an aftermarket toggel or rocker? just wonder since the only part mentioned is the butt connector. If this mod is available in the '03, can I use a DTSP type switch to achieve BCP or SEIC, therefore getting the best of both options. With a variable potentiometer installed with the SEIC cerquit, I could adjust the rpm's as needed (ham radio amp).
I have an '04, and haven't seen anybody respond for pre- '05s owners. I looked through a wiring diagram I have for 2003.5, and could not find any signals for BCP or SEIC. All I can find is PTO. Will the PTO signal function the same as BCP or SEIC? I also read SEIC locks the torque converter, will locking the torque converter hurt anything if you don't actually have a PTO?

From this post, it seems like the high idle is not standard on these trucks. I have a 2005 6.0, and it acts just like my old 7.3 did. After about 2-3 minutes at normal idle, it kicks it up to 1100RPM or so, until I touch the brake. Now I am not the original owner, so maybe something was modded, but I also have no upfitter switches, or additional switches anywhere, nor do I ever use the parking brake.
Did something get changed along the way to where this became standard? Perhaps a computer upgrade from Ford?

I believe they are talking about using it "on demand". I think they all do it for extended idle at cold temps. I was actually thinking the same as you at first.
Mod List: -51 gal RDS direct fill auxillary fuel tank -SEIC High Idle -H&S Black Maxx Running the Hot Damn +300 Tune -S&B Dry CAI -Diamond Eye 5" Turbo Back Race Exhaust -Custom 10" Sub Box Behind the Center Console -Coastaltech SYNC-LP1 Lockpick -Westin Bull Bar -Westin Taillight Guards -Recon LED Smoked Dodge Cab Marker/Clearance Lights -Billet Fender Vent Inserts -Zone Offroad 4" Lift -20x10 BMF Novakane 8's -35x12.50r20 Nitto Trail Grapplers

Can this be done on an '05 powerstroke. I only have an xlt and don't have any upfitter switches. Would any switch work? I way one for my plow lights already.
