TCC question

This is a problem related to how I drive. Most of the time I'll use the engine for braking, not the actual brakes. What that means is that I let off the gas pedal alot. This is what it seems like, when the TPS is at 0% the TCC will unlock. It doesn't matter what the MPH is. It's a cycle that makes my converter lock and unlock maybe 100 times driving a 15 mile stretch under moderate traffic. Apply tthe accelerator and TCC locks, let off the pedal and it unlocks. Maybe I should know what's going on but I'm a bit confused....

There are a couple of cal parameters that pertain to 'coast release' of the TCC. These are TPS% based and can be set to 0. There is also an option bit to enable unlocking of the TCC during DFCO.

I'll check the hack. Not looking for a hand out but do you know the general location(s)? I might modify these parameters to suit my driving style....

They are down a few from the beginning of the TCC cal data, L8315.

;
L831D: FCB 76 ; UNLOCK PREVENTION THRESH, (76 MPH)
L831E: FCB 0 ; OFFSET TO Vss WHEN 3RD GR REQ, (0 MPH)
L8316 and L8317 is what you are talking about? change to 0% and it'll "fix" my problem....
Or maybe L831D is a better choice....

I'm sorry, this is a maf(less) car running the 89 tpi ($6E) code. The locations for that would be lc290-lc291, right?

You are running ARAP? The TCC scheme for ARAP is a nightmare, causes bucking of the car in low speed cruise. I narrowed it down to 3 parameters that needed to be changed (for me anyway).
First is TCC coast release...I set it to 40 mph, Second TCC lock up not in high gear, I set that to 40 mph, Third TCC lock up in high gear, also set it to 4o mph...The bucking disappeared,

LC2A9 and LC2AA for hi speed and low speed coast release TPS% settings.

Might try lessing these, also.

L8312: FCB 9 ; UNLOCK TCC IF %TPS G.T 3.5%
L8313: FCB 29 ; DIFF TPS UNLOCK TIME (12 SEC'S)

I have my converter unlock on decel, and it's seamless on reapplying. Gotta tweak things til ya get what you want, on my MAP system changing the filter rates in the deccel area made all the difference on reapplication of the throttle form over run conditions.
