I appreciate everyone’s thoughts and suggestions to date, all of you have been very helpful.

I thought I would give you an update on where I am at today.

I have been in touch with a truck upfitter who has successfully gotten around the Ford IBC controller problem without disconnecting or removing the Ford IBC. He wires in a third party controller of your choice.

What he does is wire in a three way switch, first position is neutral therefore neither controller is active, second position activates the Ford IBC only, third position activates the third party controller only. This approach apparently does not send the truck computer a disconnect signal. Sounds good to me, anyone have any experience with this approach?

My decision now is selecting a third party controller. Have read a lot about a number of controllers but am seriously considering the “TrueControl” by Hensley Mfg. [img]www.trailersaver.com [/img]

Has anyone out there had any experience with this controller and would you recommend it?

Again, thanks for all your help

Roland
