Is there a way for high idle on demand? Mainly for use in winching operations. Being able to use an aux switch to go into high idle and get more electrical power from the alternator is a handy feature on my other vehicles.

So no then?

@Ford Why keep the SEIC just for the big trucks? An overlander has reasons to want high idle as well.

I like the idea but probably not doable with the drive by wire nature of the thing. But maybe the battery condition technology would do it on it's own? Sensing battery draw kicks in high idle, like at startup? Anybody with winching experience on the Bronco know if this is a thing?

I have a Ext Idle in my jeep, never even thought about it for the Bronco. Could be super cool.
