TV Cable Corrector
Anyone with experience with the Sonnax AS1-01K TV Cable Corrector?
Is it worth to install this rather small device?
Or will it destroy my trans in the end..??

Re: TV Cable Corrector

Re: TV Cable Corrector
If you find that when the TV cable is overtight, that the transmission shifts better, but you cannot keep it adjusted this way because you lose the adjustment when you floor it because it pulls the TV cable out. This is what the Sonnax TV cable corrector is for. This is to allow more line pressure at the lower throttle openings, while not pulling the TV cable out at WOT.

Clear, thanks!

My trans is shifting (much) harder, at somewhat higher RPM's, after mounting this Sonnax spring.
Does it harm the transmission in any way, do you think..??
