ALSO above what other people sais, say that your running an NAW6 PCM, like my old one did, this waits untill RIGHT BEFORE OD to lock the T/C. This means that crusing ob back-roads and such where the speed limit is say 35 (and your prob doing 40-45) you can hit the T/C lock to get an extra gear (although no not really you just lock the tc and bring the RPM's down) so yes... if used correctly you COULD possible see an increase in MPG... The TS chip i got took my PCM from NAW6 to TDE1, which has a different shift logic. It locks the TC at 35 and keeps it locked till back under 25, so i only use the tc lock is i'm fooling around or doing diagnostics.

Truck will stall if you forget to unlock as stated before

Are you saying you can lock the TC while its in gear and at a stand still?

Yeah what does that mean? Were you in Gear when you hit the switch? It won't lock even with the switch in Park or reverse.

Well thats one heck a built trans!! Either you torque converter clutch or your trans is slipping BAD!! With the truck in drive, foot on the brake with the truck moving no where you engine should stall with the TC clutch locked!! Hope you didn't pay much for that trans!

Well for your sake I hope you got the wrong one but it does sound like the right one. I don't have a pin out diagram with me.
