    Question on BT Lockup Box installation for 5 speed

    I moved the ground and it's still doing the same thing, so I don't think that's the issue. It's like the controller loses power as soon as the TCM commands lockup, then turns back on when the TCM unlocks the converter. Do you have the same black 8 pin connector that I showed in the first...

    Question on BT Lockup Box installation for 5 speed

    I just figured out the controller stops working/shuts off once the converter locks. Maybe a bad ground? I didn't tap into the BCM ground like the instructions said, I ran a ring terminal to a bolt under the dash. I'm going to move it to the BCM ground wire like the instructions say.

    Question on BT Lockup Box installation for 5 speed

    Got it all working. In auto mode it locks up immediately after hitting 2nd gear at WOT, feels great :) Verified with EFILive log. Couple of questions. When it's in auto mode and the controller has the box locked, the LED is bright green. It seems like as soon as the TCM commands lockup, the...

    What's your point? :confused::confused:

    CTS video quality

    Will the CTS screen provide good quality video when hooked up to a decent camera? My factory backup camera is useless for hooking up a trailer, if the sun is behind the truck it washes everything out and if it's in front of the truck the contrast is so poor that the hitch ball disappears in the...

    Question on BT Lockup Box installation for 5 speed

    Just got my new lockup controller from Ben, working on installation. I am wondering if I received the correct harness for this box. First, there's a green wire and an orange wire in the gray harness that goes to the TCM controller, both are terminated with female PCM pins. There is no...

    LML Bumper gap

    Can anyone measure the gap between their bumper and fender/headlights on their LML truck? I replaced my bumper awhile back and I think my gap is too small, the rubber flap that goes between them keeps squishing out the front.

    Ounces vs LBS

    I think you should strip the inner sidewalls off the tires next, nobody ever sees those.

    LML Downpipe/EGR questions

    I'm about done with the upgrades to my 1/2 ton, and thinking about giving my LML some love next. It's 100% stock right now. I'm really familiar with earlier models, but I am LML-dumb. EGR deletes - I think I understand how the EGR system functions on the LML. Looks pretty simple to make some...

    Rearend Gear Calculations

    The .75 4th gear of the 85E is very close to the .71 5th gear of my 5 speed Allison in my 1/2 ton LLY. I have 3.42 gears with the same 275/55R20 tires in my truck. 3.42 are decent, and I have actually thought about going to a 3.23 gear to bring down my cruising RPM (around 2000 between 70 and...

    no ignition, flashing lights

    Noooo don't start cutting. There are likely factory circuits that were rerouted through the alarm box, if you start cutting it will make a mess of things really quickly...

    no ignition, flashing lights

    Alarm definitely sounds suspect to me. I'd do a complete un-install if it were my truck and go from there. I bet the starter kill is enabled for some reason.

    Pushed out?

    Might have torn an o-ring or something when you pushed it back in.

    stock C7Z runs 10's

    Are the NHRA rules regarding cage, driveshaft loops, etc the same when it's a 100% factory car?

    Accelerator pedal drops out occasionally, P2133 P2139 P2140

    There won't be a CEL but there should be codes if any of the 3 circuits in the pedal sensor have a problem. If you have EFILive, log TP% along with APP1, 2, and 3 voltage and post screenshots.
