Live Clutch Mod (LCM)

I'm a full idiot!


I was worried when CC was first brought and am happy there was no functionality change.


In general for me, LR means it's a good day.

 

Just realized something. The clutch start cancel switch being on allows the tcase to shift into low without pressing the clutch. Never noticed that before. For some reason I was thinking the factory wired the switch in such a way that it would ground out the starter relay when pressed but without also triggering the clutch input for the 4WD ECU for shifting into low. So that was interesting to me to find out.

I did get my clutch bypass jumper from Dave and it works exactly as intended. I plugged that in and threw it over the kick panel. I just got my new tires and an inspection done so I shouldn’t have to undo any of that for at least a year. Now, to train myself to kick it into neutral and not use the clutch for starts like I did in my Jeep…

I still want to rewire something into the clutch start cancel switch circuit to turn out that stupid indicator light once the clutch is pressed for the first time. That is how my frontier was, it was perfect. There is no reason for that light to remain on for the entire length of a drive just because you used the button to bypass the clutch on start.

 

I'm happy for whatever reason that both the CSC and inverter lights are hidden when I am driving. Pretty dumb that the CSC stays lit.
