    Looking for wisdom from all who have installed alarm systems on there trucks.I'm thinking of buying a viper system with an auto start and turbo saver timer for my 2004 diesel. Is it really worth the $ for the remote start and turbo timer, or just get the basic alarm system?

    My transmission temp reading goes all the way up to the high side and than comes back down to no reading at all. My tow haul button on the shift handle (auto trans) blinks off and on.

    Battery Light.........

    I had the same issue this summer. I had my alternator checked and I had a bad diode. The FORD tech told me that is why it only came on some of the time. I recently had to replace both of my batteries this month because I drove all summer with the light coming on and off.
