Has anyone made there own manual lockup for a Toyota Crown Gearbox, as I am using this in a 4X4. This would be good, as it would give me engine braking as well to help when towing.
I have been looking on this site and other sites for information on locking up the torque converter for my Nissan conversion, as I am using the 4-speed auto that came with my half cut Toyota Crown.
I found on a 4X4 site, which had a circuit, which I thought with a few changes I could use on my Toyota gearbox.
By the wiring diagram I do have for the gearbox, it looks as if the ECM earths out the converter lockup solenoid on pin 14 (slu - ) plug e10 to lock the converter. I think this happens once the system decides that it is OK, but I would like to override the system.
Has any one got any thoughts on this, as any ideas would be helpful?
