| Unfortunately, he's right. According to the manufacturer, in the Canadian model you can't disable them

| Yeah it stinks... I guess a new computer would be the only answer... Oh, or maybe a new truck. You can trade it in for an American made can'tchya?

| Rather than pulling it one click I would look into the e-brake wiring to see if there is a way to fool it  `

| I guess I better look next time I didn't look to see if this was canada truck, turns out it was shipped to calgary and then shipped to north dakota and sold, I got it from the original owner. the e brake trick works if the truck is in park to start with, maybe need to crawl around the empties on the floor and see if the there is a fix. Thanks very much for the help. |
