    Should be fun when your (generic?) OBD reader tells you on the autoroute that the torque convertor is not locking up and you are not in top gear. I doubt that you can manually force the selection of top gear, the electronics decide when to shift...

    Ah you see information is king :). So all it’s doing is switching a relay somewhere else that takes the load for the floor element. Why I didn’t think of that when you said you were gonna connect the load across a bimetallic switch :vb-groan2:. J
