making an auto hold gears

[STL17]

hey lads just a quick one is there a cheaters way to trick my auto in my vn [vs ecotec] to hold gears and not change on its own just need to do a dyno run cause my auto changes into 4th before i can see a good result i have a transpack shiftkit i only need it to not select gears on it own for one run

It will only force the gear change when it bounces of the limiter. And your not going to make any power up there anyway. So just put the shifter in 3rd and rev the tits off it.

I'm sure the dyno operator will know what to do anyway.

Disconnect the trans electrical connector will send it into limp home mode locking second or third with the gear stick, not sure if this can damage the box on a dyno tho, it is meant to get you home or to the dealer in the event of an electrical (read solenoid) fault inside the box.

[delcowizzid]

disconnecting the box will work or most places just use efilive V4 and an aldl cable to command the ecu to hold 3rd gear while on the dyno

[VR38]

That is, if you transplanted the 4L60e with the motor.
Not sure howto with a VP box or what have you?
