I would like to build a simple high idle controller so that I can increase my alt's output when I need to, such as running a high power inverter or jump starting another vehicle. This would include a safety interlock so that it would only engage with the flick of a switch when the car is in park AND the parking brake is set. In order to do this, can I take the cheap way out, and just apply a voltage to the vaccum wire on the cruise control computer? I would make it so that the voltage would be momentary just to open the solenoid a small bit. When it is switched off, the vent solenoid would open for 1 second to release the vacuum. would this work? or are there other details i am missing? This would not interfere with CC, since it is set to work only in park, and CC does not work in park.
