My 92 chevy van.4l80e stuck in limp mode. 1st and reverse do work.speedometor does not.code 81,82.how do I fix it.3 master mechanics can't figure it out
Yes this MOD totally works I go another step with the brown wires to the TCC and add a microswitch under the left foot rest and now I also have a clutch control FULL MANUAL for my L67 😆😎😈
Still dont understand what wires i gotta recconect and cut for my vx as u skip that part u tell us the wire and then just say pair them and enjoy pls reply
So you wouldn't recommend it for my daily driver. Its a vt calais v6. I drive through the gears as though its manualised but I hate the lag when I shift up and down. I have brought the diode. But am hesitant yet to do it as I haven't heard many people doing this to their daily. Cheers mate
It’s been 2 years ladies and gents… what’s the verdict?is it ok on a daily or just keep it for the shit box skiddder? (I don’t skid/drive the daily hard at all, but If it’s gonna make my transmission more likely to shit the bed, imma just put the 6 speed in…really cbf to do a swap so hopefully use have good news🙏)
Great it works BUUTT it would of been nice to let people know the engine light will come on after doing this , its kind of annoying in a street car . Is there any way to rectify that ?? cheers

Can anyone help me I have an ls1 5.7litre I have installed a rebuilt gearbox since putting it in I can’t select any gear other then 1st and 2nd & the speedo isn’t working? Any suggestions

Hi just done in v6 vs super6. works awsum thanks. as i only need 1st for take off i modded the selector to allow free moment back to second without the selector lever button used. do you have any diagrams or advice on how to wire in a tcc switch to this setup so i can manually lock and unlock the converter? . that would make it the best setup on a budget ever. cheers thanks love ya work Justin
I'm looking at doing this too my L67 VX it's got 320whp and has a built box. So my idea is do this but have a ratchet shifter setup so it becomes basically a 4spd sequential (obviously it's not a legit sequential)
Hey mate, I followed your videos and diagrams but for some reason on my VT V6 Paddock Bomb it hasn't worked? It now shows the Transmission Light on the Dash Cluster and it's kinda like Limp Mode now. Seems like it's just in Drive and not using/selecting any of 1st, 2nd or 3rd. I still get N, R and P. Any ideas mate?
Yes, I am in sydney, Check my rfboom facebook page for the LS info. It can also be done in the PCM tune for the gearbox parameters so not necessarily need to be done with this wiring mod.
it wouldnt be the same because its a different gearbox and different PCM. It would take a fair bit of testing to figure out what triggers gear holding via wiring, would be easier in the tune.
Since I'm upgrading diff to 3.9s in mafless tuned vyss the pcm has already been manualised in 1st n second so can drift hard in 2nd in dry as stock can do 140ks in 2nd but now doing cam n going 3.9s 2nd gear will be to short so will want 3rd n 4th manualised can I speak to my tuner so he can do that with the dyno tune when doing cam n stally on dyno?or is there way I can do this? 2004 vy ss
Hey Justin, no it does not shift normal in 3 or Drive after the mod. Having it in D is 4th gear. So if starting from a stand still in D, it will try to take off in 4th gear which it wont like, and wont move very fast and will give the stall converter a hard time.
thank you so much for your reply. whats the go with the torque converter lockup? does it still work or do i need a separate switch? thanks again justin.
@@justinlinton4810 The converter lock up will work like normal, so once its speed / load / throttle position determine its ok to engage it will. It can be put on a separate switch if you would like.
holdenguy75. i have a 2002 chevy cammed 5.3ls 4l60e. problem i have is it wont hold first gear when i try to wind it up for a race will ur bypass work for my truck any advice would help thanx..
i get it now thanks heaps.. would be awsum if someone made the wire swap on a switch.. eg full manual mode or auto mode.. got a few tech mates so ill look into it. easy option should be 2 switchers but a single switch might get complicated. end result would be the power switch in the console, power mode =manual and eco mode = full auto.. any one reading this have a crack it would be an awsum breakthrough for the commodore transmission ..!
Correct, by putting it to 1 it actually stays in 1. Factory it will still shift to 2nd as a gearbox protection inbuilt into ECU programming allows it to even though selecter is in 1 position.
Yes it works for a 99 VT. I did it to my 99 VT exec v6 2 weeks ago and worked perfectly. It makes the gearbox become fully manualised. So take off from stand still the selector must be in 1 to be in first gear, and progressively go up the gears as you need to, and move the selector to each gear according to speed. Putting it in D is 4th gear.
@@sk8meup9 yeh nah we’re asking for the size of the diode not asking for the price of the diode because I’ve got tins fill of diodes but I’m not that keen on having to keep pulling it back apart until I find the right one 🤌🤦♂️🤌
Highly likely to cook box in forth for long periods. You can add a switch which you could lock converter at any point. Generally they only lock in 3rd and forth. Could get you some more info if need be but a Google search will tell you what you need to kno
Will this work for the ls1 and 4l60e out of a vy? Planning on putting it in a vb commo and was planning on keeping it with 4l60e and want to be able to hit limiter
Which wire controls the torque converter lockup ? I want to put it on a switch so it still locks up in 3rd n 4th . Can anyone tell me how I can do this ? Cheers
What happens If you dont use the diode? And will overdrive engage when u go into 4th (drive)
i did this when i went from auto to manual in a el xr6 so also works for manual conversion
Wtf! You can run a manual box on an auto ecu anyway
Weird thing to do since you do need to do that to convert to manual but ohkay
