TS Performance Torque Converter Lock Up

The TS Performance Torque Converter Lock-UP allows you to lock and un-lock your torque converter at the speed of your choice. Most factory converters lock up at high speeds, and un-lock when off the throttle. This can cause increased temperatures due to friction between the converter and flywheel. It will also inhibit vehicle performance and fuel economy lock at high speeds.

The converter can work in conjunction with an exhaust brake to help slow the engine speeds instead of relying completely on the brakes to slow the truck. By programming the converter to un-lock at a low speed it will help to stop the truck.

By allowing the operator to choose the speed the converter locks and un-locks results in:

  • Improved Fuel Economy
  • Programmable un-locking speed
  • Programmable locking speed
  • Improved acceleration
  • Reduce overheating and wear of brakes.
  • Reduce operating temperatures of the transmission and torque converter

Example of setting up the tool: You adjust the TCC loc- up while driving the truck. Drive the truck to 30 MPH and hit the up arrow to set the lock-up speed, then slow down to 15 MPH and hit the bottom arrow to set your unlock speed at 15 MPH. When you start out from now on as soon as the truck hits 30 MPH the converter will lock and will remain locked until the speed drops down to or below 15 MPH. The unlock speed can be set as low as 5 MPH.

Installation is cutting the TCC lockup wire and splice in, and putting a few T-Taps inline (VSS). Not for the electronically challenged. This is not simple plug and play. You don't need to be an electronic engineer...but if your afraid of cutting a wire you should contact us for installation.

Capable of reading and displaying transmission temps. Sending unit or probe is NOT included. Any standard electronic sending unit from Autometer (or similar) will hook to the included temp probe wire that comes off of the TS wire harness.

Has an ON/OFF function.

Sets up one of two ways. "ON" each time you start the truck, or..... "OFF" each time you start the truck. Manual control can over-ride settings, if it is set to "ON" each time you start the truck, you may simply hit the manual "OFF" button to power the unit down.
