Any of you Bighorn or Tradesman owners with the "mid-line" instrument panel, I can't figure out how to see options such as trans temp or DPF regen info or any other parameters not already displayed by the stock gauge layout. Ive been thru my owners manual and it discusses the ability to scroll thru many of these parameters using the steering wheel controls but I cannot figure it out. I'm thinking most of this stuff simply isn't available on the "mid-line" layout found in Tradesman and Bighorn trim levels? Also, the "idle-up" feature appears to be a no-go as well. Am i just not doing something correctly? Cuz I'm ready to buy a Banks iDash just to see these things that are apparently not available to see on my truck (Bighorn).
 
is it the small screen dash cluster?

steering wheel controls. click down and then left or right i believe it is for extra options in the screen your on.

It can all be seen on the 3.5 Evic. Whether its the B&W one or the colour one if you go to the one that has your TPMS (one above the fuel millage gauge) you can go left and right to scroll through the gauges
 
Ah HA! Thanks for the help fellas, my dumb a$$ finally figured it out. On getting to the different parameters, I was pressing the center "OK" button first before pressing the down arrow to access the scrolling menu, which do indeed include trans temp and DPF info..... even on the "mid-line" instrument panel. I'm too old for all this computer crap-- just give me a good ol' analog gauge, a telephone with a curly cord attached to it, and a fast-food restaurant where you just walk up to the counter and order your food from a real person.
