I figured they could, and I asked them. But being that it is illegal they would not do it. I have another dealer I can try, or I'll just go in there for something stupid like a radio unlock and talk to the guy while he is doing it.

I have a Tech II. What is the process to change them to stay on with high beams?

Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration (IPM)

General Information to Setup the Instrument Panel Module (IPM)

Important: The Air Bag indicator light may remain ON after the instrument panel module (IPM) is replaced and during the setup procedure for the IPM until the procedure is completed and the ignition key is cycled OFF and ON.

Before performing any of the setup procedures ensure the following:



The scan tool has been updated with the latest software version.
The battery is fully charged.
All modules on the serial data line are connected.
The following procedures must be performed when a new IPM is installed:



Setup New IPM/RIM
Program vehicle identification number (VIN)
Brake Pedal Position (BPP) Sensor Calibration
Setup New IPM/RIM

This procedure will allow the user to compare the IPM and rear integration module (RIM) vehicle configuration data. The IPM is the master for storing vehicle configuration and a backup copy is retained in the RIM. If a fault occurs in either module, this test will do a comparison of data and the user will then be able to update the data in the module that was replaced.

To set up a new IPM, perform 'Setup New IPM/RIM' procedure under Vehicle Control Systems > Computer/Integrating Systems > Module Setup > IPM menus on the scan tool.

Excepting the Export Country option, which is slightly different, the screen will display 4 columns. The user will be able to scroll up and down with the up and down arrow keys in all columns. The user will be able to scroll through options available to that name/function in the fourth column with the left and right arrow keys. The first column will display the function of the option. The second column will display RIM data and the third column will display IPM data. The forth and final column will display all options available for that name/function. The user will compare the RIM to the IPM data or the IPM to the RIM data depending on which module was replaced. If the user replaces the IPM, the user will scroll through the options with the left and right arrow keys in the fourth column and match that option with the option set in the RIM column. Likewise, if the user replaces the RIM, the user will scroll through the options with the left and right arrow keys in the fourth column and match that option with the option set in the IPM column.

The following options can be set up:



Export Country
Engine Type
Aux. Heater/KA6
TVT/YQ6 or YQ7 - TV Tuner
DRR/U2K - Digital Radio Receiver
Remote Start
Theft Export/CU9
CTD Present - Content Theft Deterrent (UK)
Automatic Trans.
AWD/MV3 - ACC Wheel Drive
Alarm Export/UA2
ACC/K59 - Adaptive Cruise Control
Driver Position
MSM Lumbar/AL2 - Memory Seat Module
MSM/A45 - Memory Seat Module
Intru Export/UA2 - Intrusion Sensor
Heated Seats/KA1
Speed Biasing
HUD/UV6 - Head Up Display
Incli Exp/UA2 - Inclination Sensor
VCIM/UE1 - OnStar(R)
SCLM/UA2 - Steering Column Lock Module
RWD/M22 or M82 - Rear Wheel Drive
SOD/UEB - Side Object Detection
ESC/F55 - Electronic Suspension Control
Overspeed /Warn.
TCS - Traction Control System
TPM - Tire Pressure Monitoring
Smart Beam /TQ5
Headlamp Level
Air Quality /K14
HV Seat /KB6 - Heated/Vented Seat
Metric FE Units - Fuel Economy Units
DRL/Z49 - Daytime Running Lamps
HID/TT6/TT7/TT8 - High Intensity Discharge Lamps
Fog Lmps not Us /Can
SWC/K59 - Steering Wheel Control Switches with Adaptive Cruise Control
SWC/UE1 - with OnStar(R)
SWC Htd St WHL - with Heated Steering Wheel
After all options were set, save them using Save Options. If the option setting was successfully, Procedure Complete message will be displayed. The power mode will toggle from Run to Accessory.

Program VIN

This procedure needs to be performed if IPM is replaced. Under Module Setup > IPM menu, perform the program VIN procedure following the Tech 2 instructions.

BPP Sensor Calibration

This procedure needs to performed whenever IPM or BPP sensor was replaced. Refer to Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration in Lighting Systems. See: Accessories and Optional Equipment\Pedal Positioning Sensor\Service and Repair\Procedures

Important: After setup, perform the following to avoid future misdiagnosis:



Turn the ignition OFF for 10 seconds .
Connect the scan tool to the data link connector (DLC).
Turn the ignition ON, with the engine OFF.
Use the scan tool in order to retrieve history DTCs from all modules.
Clear all history DTCs.

Re: Make fogs stay on with high-heam?

Yeah pretty much anything like that can be done via software. I had an '06 Ram 2500 Diesel and "borrowed" a Chrysler StarScan for the weekend. I activated the "all lights on" feature (low,high,fogs on), activated the lane change blinker feature (blinks the turn signals 3x if u flick it once), and also made the Nav let me do whatever the hell I wanted to even if I was moving.

I have no doubt we can do this with a Tech II

Re: Make fogs stay on with high-heam?

So has anyone messed around with a tech II besides for messing with the foglights? Any other cool little things to do? Can I adjust the rev limiter so I can get above 3k rpm while in neutral to rev up my Corsa? Can you make the nav always work so there is no need for a lockpick?
