Cold shift Schedule always
My truck always starts and goes into cold shift mode, even if I start 2 minutes after I shut it off and its still warm enough for the needle to be on the O in normal.
So why does it do this?

The shifts are based on transmission oil temp. There is a thermistor in the solenoid pack to measure it.
You can see the pinout here:
1996 Bronco/F-Series
Unfortunately I don't know what the resistance should be.

I don't want to get rid of it, but I don't think it is necessary that it goes into cold shift every time I start the truck. I mean I could drive 100 miles, shut the truck off for 10 seconds, restart it and it would be in cold shift mode.
I couldn't make heads or tails out of those two links.
What pins should I check the resistance across?

See page 3 the TST is about the size of a pin cap. It should come out a a 1/4 turn. There will be a qt or so of fluid behind it.
