09/01/2009
PTO Operation
The 3500/4500/5500 Dodge Chassis Cab vehicle, when equipped with either the
automatic Aisin 6spd or manual G-56 6spd transmissions, will allow for an aftermarket
upfit with a transmission driven PTO (power take off). The customer will have the ability
to operate the PTO in either a “stationary” or “mobile” mode. The vehicles will be
factory set to the “stationary” mode. In order to select the “mobile” mode a Chrysler
Group LLC Dealership is required to modify the vehicles settings using their proprietary
Dealer service tool.
Stationary Mode
To operate the PTO in this mode the vehicle must meet the following conditions:
• Be in “park” position ( vehicles equipped with automatic transmission)
• Upfitter provider (on/off) switch has been activated
• Parking brake applied (vehicles equipped with manual transmission)
• Vehicle must be running
• No vehicle, brake or clutch switch faults present
• PTO must be correctly installed using the vehicle provided circuits
The customer has the choice to operate the PTO by utilizing the cruise control switches
or by utilizing a remote control (provided by the PTO supplier). To operate the feature
using the cruise control switches the customer must first activate the up fitter provided
on/off switch. Next, the cruise control “on” switch is selected. Following this step the
“set” switch must be depressed. The vehicle is now in the PTO mode and is ready for use.
In order to increase or decrease the engine idle speed, to optimize the PTO function, the
“accel” and “decel” cruise switches can be used respectively.
To disengage PTO operation and return to “standard vehicle operation” simply turn the
up fitter provided on/off switch to the off position.
To operate the PTO via a remote switch the customer must make sure the above
conditions are met. It is vital for proper operation that the PTO and remote have been
installed correctly paying special attention to ensure the vehicle provided wiring has been
connected properly. This is the responsibility of the installer of the PTO and
switches/remote system. It is the responsibility of the PTO manufacturer to ensure that
their electrical (switches and remote) system is compatible with the vehicle’s electrical
architecture and software functionality.
Mobile Mode
To operate the PTO in this mode the vehicle must meet the following conditions:
• Dealer selected “mobile” mode activated via Dealer proprietary service tool
• Upfitter provider (on/off) switch has been activated
• Vehicle must be in “park” or “drive” position (vehicles equipped with automatic
transmission)
