Caragraphic lowering module ?
Hey fella's
Had a quick question. Does anyone know if there is a way to keep the truck at the lowest setting and drive it. I want the truck to be slammed when it's rollin at all times.
Thanks

there is a way that I did it with my Cargraphic PLM, i just dont know if I would call it safe or not because of the camber and other factors.
But, if you want to do it...
go to loading level in the truck. turn the truck off. Go to the back and open up the right storage spot in the trunk (where the cd changer would be located). In there, you will find your lowering module and ECU deal. Just simply unplug the whole air control unit. You can leave it in there, just leave it unplugged. The car will stay at the Cargraphic Loading level, and the only side affects I knew of was the red light on the dash. But, yeah I would probably ask Erik first.

Habitat : If you disconnect the grey/pink and the red/blue wires from the lowering module, the speed related height adjustment is no longer working.
That makes it possible to drive at "loading level".

Kerry,
I would strongly suggestion you don't do this! I have my FVD lowering module at the lowest setting and when I am in the lowered driving mode (not loading the next higher one) I actually still bottom out on big bumps! Driving around in loading mode would mean driving around on the bump stops which would not only kill the handling and ride of the truck, but also I would think its not too safe....
Just my opinion,
Evan
