Btw, from what I have read, the ficm isolators were not used on our MY trucks, only have rubber isolators under the bracket that the ficm is mounted to, in other words the rubber should only be down by the valve cover where the bracket meets the engine, not right under the ficm

motocamper, what is this type of engine monitoring? Looks like you are reading off your smart phone, how does it work?

Truck weighs 10k. I was unloaded, but had just run it hard. I needed to check that PID too. Torque app has two trans temp PID's.

Trans was serviced about 10k ago.

Torque app for android. It uses a Bluetooth obd2 dongle.

There are parts I found ,after I removed mine, I paid 50 for the rubber and steel sleeves, the factory bolts and nuts on studs would not make it through them without utilizing a set of vise grips, then I wised up.

Double check it, now that I look at it, the trans is the exact same temp as the coolant? I am willing to bet your hunch is right

Got it working today. Although, I did have to delete the "auto" setting. Temp was 154 cruising at 65.

That sounds more like it! I thought something was up, my last trip I topped out at 177 for a max when towing, so 192 seemed high
