ECT Always On Mod - Revisited

I am waiting for Meso shift knob, this looks like a easy install but why are we not just pressing the ECT button? It does not take much to do that.
I am not putting your device down, just asking questions. Once you have this mod installed, how do you get ECT off?

 

first of fall i am an old fart so that explains, i have push button start and sometimes when i forget to push ECT button and i am at a stop i go to push it an my old fart muscle memory pushes the start button and turns the engine off.
to get ECT off then you push it, i never turn mine off.

 

I would be doing the same believe me if I had push button start

 

This is a awesome mod! Is your mod available for purchase?

 

yes..PM the OP wonderslugger

 

Two original boards left! Which @arrijay and one other have claimed. Sending PM's now...If anybody wants more, we'll have to set up that group buy so we can order the right amount of circuit boards...

 

To answer the question about turning the mod on/off, a simple 5 second long press of the button activates/deactivates the module that can be heard with a single/double beep. Everything is in the isntructions. The button can ALWAYS be used as normal regardless of whether the module is active/inactive...

 

OP, received your letter today in the mail with the stickers. Speaks volumes when you go through all that trouble, so I thank you. The ect mod has worked perfectly since the install and was definitely worth it...

 

Glad to hear it!

 

If you have more available I would be interested.

 

PM Sent.

 

So this is where we are at this point in our history that we come up with mods that basically keep us from having to make a half second press of a button? No offense to anyone that wants it but I just don’t see the point.

 

What's wrong with wanting a set it and forget it type of set up?

You should have bought a truck from the mid 80's with manual windows, old tech and low to zero automation.

 

Really? Because manual windows are the equivalent of a half second button push?

There's nothing wrong with it per say, but I remember watching a Jetson’s episode once where George came home and his wife asked him how was work? He said he was exhausted because he had to push three buttons that day. That’s kind of what I was referring to. If you want it, go for it, I couldn’t give a shit less since it doesn’t affect me one way or the other.

OTOH, I’m just making an observation and commenting that it seems like a waste of money for such little return to me. YMMV.

 

The point of the mod for me was less about the actual pressing of the button, and almost entirely about me forgetting to push the button whenever I got in. So it's more of a memory enhancing mod than a time saving mod.

 

Again no offense intended just an observation. I forget on occasion too. I’m pretty used to it by now though.

 

No offense taken! Everyone's entitled to their opinion!

 

Had your mod for a over a week and I love it! Your instructions and detail to attention is on point. Also love the stickers you included. Its so easy to disable and enable your mod when needed. Thanks again!

 

same here, when making stops at a few stores and forget to push it and turn out into traffic and the truck can't get out of its own way.
