RBob's response to my shift light question and some funny scan results I'm getting raised a further question: Is the code in an auto bin not as usable in a manual application-

eg although the auto BIN shows the shift light parameters on a chip editor, does its code use the pin for TCC so differently that even though you select a high lock speed for TCC in 3rd and 4th, you don't get the shift light function anyway?

eg I'm getting a torque converter overtemp flag.

The code is basically the same between the two, and they've sold alot of manual trannied cars. Not to mention it had to get the good houskeeping seal of approval from the EPA.

Are you starting with a known good manual tranny bin file?. If your working with an auto bin and trying to make a manual one out of it there might be some gotchas. As I recall their was a fair amount of diffences between 8Ds.

 

I used a manual bin (AXXD) and copied the 5.7(AUJP) files over to it and then made my changes from there. That way I didn't have the auto parts in my way to deal with. Shift light works and all the auto stuff is not present. I needed to make a list of all the 5.7 tables I needed, then copy them over.
