Does anyone have pictures of were they tied into the converter wiring. my colors don't seem to match up. I am also color blind.

 

What year truck?

I post a pic in a minute.

 

Its an '01 f250, thanks.

 

There are four banks of weatherpacks. The one closest the the front of the truck is the one you are looking for. Now the second row of wire from the top, second wire in is the lockup on my truck (00').

 

I only see one wire running from the pack (in your pic) did you cancel the computer from having any control.

 

Well, it's hard to see. Ignore the other wires and connectors in the photo. I put a switch in-dash and I can cancel the computers control when I want. When I turn it off, it just goes back to normal. The circuit is a tap/overide so the computer see's that there is nothing wrong until you ground the converter. You will get a TCC solenoid failure code, but it will not cause any issues. Had this set up for a while.

Just make sure that it is the second wire in and second row from the top. You may want to test this connection first as some years put the TCC in different places.

 

i just went out and took these and added them to my gallery. take a look at the last three pictures of the gallery, it's what you want to find.

this is 16, you want to look at 17 and 18 also.

 

I found the wire and went for a test drive to make sure. Pretty sure what I have to do now. Looking at pics now.

 

Pics reasured what I was thinking, thanks. Can't wait to finish and try it out.

 

once you are sure you have the right wire tapped, hit the switch to lock up the torque converter in PARK (not in gear...!!!). if you have the right wire the LED (if you have one) will come on and you will hear a distinct rattling/scratching sound, it is the TC locked up.

 

You mean the rattling will stop. Mine rattles when unlocked, hit the switch and she goes quiet. I use the silence to diagnose other rattles and tapps.

 

got it all hooked up and working. Mine rattles when I engage it.

 

mine is the exact opposite. my stock single disc is quiet when unlocked and loud when locked....

 

Hmmm. I don't doubt you, but mine definately goes quiet when locked.

I have the stock converter too.

 

If I go with this mod will it help my "bucking" problem? I thought you need the torque convert to be spinning when you are moving. Or am I thinking of something else.
