Is the truck supposed to be running non-stop for hours on end? Is there a way that I can get it to turn on only 1-2 minutes/hr like others on the forum?
I've read others' posts about using pro power onboard and it sounds like others' trucks are only running 1-2 minutes on every hour when in 'generator mode'. Every time that I try to use generator mode my truck seems to run non-stop until i turn it off: headlights stay on, ac stays blowing, it acts like its ready to drive. The engine never turns off. I'm also wondering if the auto start/stop removal is causing this to happen. I'd like to take my truck ice fishing this year and use it to power a tv / laptop and some other small stuff, but if the truck runs non-stop it's not worth it.
I have a 22 xlt w/ a 2.7L ecoboost and 2.4kw pro power on board, and auto start/stop removal.
Edit: Also of note: I've never tested this for more than 20 minutes or so. Maybe it does turn off after running for some amount of time at the beginning?
