Need help installing 700r4 lockup kit

I'm installing the brake switch lockup kit from bowtie-overdrives into my 1987 700r4. My question is there are 2 presssure switches on the valve body. Which location of the 2 do install the pressure switch from the kit into. and what about the other pressre switch? What does it do?

Btw I have emailed bowtie overdrives numberous times about this and have received no response, there phone number does not work. What lousy service.

If anyone can help thatd be great

It should probably go into the location of the 4th gear clutch switch in the diagram below. The other switch can be disconnected and left, or you can remove it and install a pipe plug.

I don't know anything about the bowtie overdrives kit, but if it's like 99.44% of the kits out there that's where it'll go.

Yup, Apeiron and others helped me out with this same project. That is where the switch goes.
