I just read on another forum it is a normal thing with 80e that when you let off the throttle the converter unlocks, is there a way to fix this? The converter locks up great and holds fine till I let off.

I not 100% sure, but it seems the 4L80E control algorithm (for want of a better name) does this, whereas the 4L60E one does not.
Well for car 4L60Es this can be changed to not unlock the converter when off the throttle, truck 4L60Es unlock the converter regardless of settings. Solution? Run a car OS in the TCM (if you have 2 modules).
For the 4L80E, not sure if you can do it as Im not aware of any car that used it. Wonder if anyone has found the area in the hex code to maybe make a .cax to enable/disable this (and would be great for LS1 cars too).
Erik, do you mean with the apply/release tables D1001-6, or is there another table...?Quote:

I know for the TBSS the stock TCM OS unlocks the converter but if you run a GTO OS in the TCM it keeps it locked.Quote:

Yes, tables D1001-6. Even when commanding it to lockup below 5% throttle, it still unlocks in the 80E cal.Quote:

It certainly did. It also eventually threw a code for transmission component slipping, because I don't have access to the gear ratios (when the TCC is locked up, and I don't have EFILive yet). I fixed that code, but I may end up upping the minimum diagnostic temp for P1870 to something above 250*.Quote:
