    Default Shift Light Help

    I am trying to get the shift light to operate on a project we have. We are using the shift light to trigger kickdown on a TH400 through a relay. I can not get the ground trigger to work. I have a pin in 47 red and am testing now to see if it even triggers, it does not. The tune has a manual transmission and I thought I had everything set correctly. I have tried running it as a Y Body and GMT800, which is what it was originally. Any help would be awesome.

    The goal is have it trigger off TPS only.

    So I wonder if I am running into a wall here. I pulled the tune off the ECM with HPT and there are other shift light options available there like Min MAP, Max TPS, TPS Multi, Delay Time. Crap....... I own streams in EFI, since that is what I tune 99% of my stuff with. HPT hangs around on a few ECMs I need it for.

    New development. If I use B5801, Max RPM in All Gears, it works...... That's great for a shift light. I cant get it to trigger except on that setting.

    It looks like I am hitting the MAX TPS table. In the segment I used is set to 0 in every cell...... Which we cant adjust....... Anyone have a CAX?

    Well, I bit the bullet and bought HP credits to test...... And nada. I can still only get it to work off the B5801 table. Any one know if this is rig/os specific?

    Have never done this ... the tune attached below may not work ... the vehicle may have to be in motion (i.e. have an active VSS input) for this to operate.

    So speed does not trigger it either. Hooked a drill up to external seed sender. Tried many different speeds too.

    Tried tuning the purge system to kick on 100% at high MAP, no luck there. Most I could get was 15 percent. Hmmmmmm, I need a dang high map or high tps trigger.

    What OS are you using. (don't have efilive on this pc.) I cannot see any VSS modifiers on the memory map I have.
