I spoke with a guy at Black Dog Customs and he said the TPS is sensitive and it needs to be .50 V not even .51. Will check [hopefully] tomorrow.

Yes. No codes. Yes. After cleaning connection I got 5V reference. Ground is good. For clarity, I have NOT checked the variable voltage since cleaning the sensor connection. When I checked it prior I only did it in the idle position and it was below, about the same low voltage as the ref which...

Thanks. I have that page. I will formally test that middle wire on the TPS with my wife pressing the accelerator. I know you can move it by hand under the hood, but since I was holding the probe and ground I didn't have a free handle. I was working alone.

I called the guy that rebuilt the transmission. He agreed the torque converter must not be locking. He said the converter lock is good for about an 800 rpm drop. I asked if he had a scanner that plugged into the transmission directly and he said he did not have one, but they had one at the shop...

I just wondered why the BFT hard drives are selling for $400 on eBay. I get for a restoration you would want the rack and monitor for looks, but if it doesnt do anything with GPS why pay so much for some likely low storage hard drives. Is there anything else one could do on it? Solitaire? jk

Nice setup! Thanks for context. I saw a blue force monitor and hard drives on eBay. What can you do on the one in the picture as a civilian? (of course it shouldn't connect to the military satellite network anymore).

I think the brake lights will just stay on if I did this. Can anyone confirm if one side is lights and one for the torque converter? If I knew which I could just unplug the TC side and it would help it lock in 3rd and 4th gear? I may be way off here.

Yes, ignore the TPS sensor and padlock sitting there in the pic.

Not sure why it turned it up 90 deg when I posted it. Original image was easier to see. Note transmission shifter on left side of picture to orient oneself.

Anyone know what this rack was used for? In between front seats, typically the radio box location. M1151A1.

Can I just unplug these two wires? One is for TC lock signal and one for the brake lights?

Thanks for brake switch idea. Can anyone explain why it shifts well (still high RPMs at high speeds) with the TPS sensor wire unplugged and then goes into limp mode when I plug it back in? With a new TPS and no codes? Got 5V ref on sensor wire and continuity to ground after cleaning it. My...

Mogman, do you think the torque converter not locking in 3rd and 4th gear would cause the high RPMs? I have no reason to believe the transfer case or differentials are bad. The engine power is not getting to the wheels as it should!

I was going about to do that before you posted. Just cycling 12... uh

I will recheck for error codes. Going to call a guy Monday that I have heard had a scanner that fit an H1. Seems like a scanner for the transmission could allow manual shifting and help diagnosis a bad TCM.

It was very tricky (the bolts were very difficult to access) but got a new TPS installed today!! With the TPS sensor wire unplugged it has been shifting fairly well but still runs high RPMS in the upper gears. 60mph is about the practical limit now and I'm running 3200rpm there. 800rpm at idle...

What is this TPS setting harness about? https://blackdogcustoms.com/product/tps-setting-harness/ Will I need to calibrate or adjust a new sensor?

I just ordered a new TPS. Are you referencing the Tech 2 scan tool? Where does it plug in? (unlikely to have a J1?)

I did get $50 (policy limit) reimbursed from the insurance company for the tow. Helps.
