I used to have the low oil light sometimes prior to one of the more recent firmware updates.
Has not showed itself in some time.
I very rarely start my truck before 8 seconds.
I turn the key, lock my seat belt, fiddle with a few things and by then the 4x2 message has cleared and I start within 10-15 seconds.

Thought I may get this response. All good. Am I the only one with is issue?

You all love that tone? If so, be well.
I've had the truck for five days and I hate it. I've always started the truck and then put on the seat belt and done whatever else to give it a few seconds before driving away, and I don't really want to change that routine.

Any chance this is a dealer programmable thing?

I've done the belt minder cancel and door open dings.

I also cut a wire under the steering column to stop the chiming when the door is open while key is in ignition.

Which wire does a guy cut? I want to do this ASAP.

On my 2002 you pulled the ignition tumbler out and put some electrical tape on it to solve the problem, one of the best mods I did.

Thanks.

Surely taking her for a ride in your awesome pickup solves all problems?
