This one has worked well for me, however. I like to carry one in each car so I can troubleshoot on the road.

AM.

Thank you, Ordering one today. For $10 more I can also get a supplemental package for 1999 Ford F250, mine has the 7.3 turbo diesel, so that will come in handy, I'm sure.

As expected, the LCM 3 was the culprit. All it needed was a re-code. Nice to FINALLY drive at night with both eyes lit up!

Interesting READ. For the greater part of 6 years or so, I've been running with modded lights without the leveling connected . Still tied into factory switch wires, etc and my lows have been fine as such

A 2006 has LCM III? My late 04 has a IV, interesting.
