Trans goes into Normal hot 2 mode

[4wheelin]

My trans goes into normal hot trans mode 2 and shifts at high pressures and won't go into 4th, I have the trans overtemp set at 125 degrees and none of my logs show anything over 90 degrees c. Seems to be fine for about 15 minutes and then goes in to hot 2 normal mode, it comes out again later and seems temp related but there is no Hot 2 normal options in the cal. Any ideas??

Is that 125 F or C ??

In your tune, what values do E1101 and E1102 contain...?

[4wheelin]

Thats degrees C and the E1101 and 1102 are set at 125 and 130 respectivly.
My data log shows max trans cell temps at 90 degrees. I run 2 external coolers with a separate fan as its a competition 4x4, so far its only played up on longer drive back and forth from home to work, about 25 minute trips and about 15 minutes into the drive. It didnt fault when manually shifted during tuning for hours.

Hmmm.... try setting E1102 to 120.

Thats where it was to start with stock, I put them up to try to stop the problem.

Try making E1102 less than E1101.

No go.
It happens after a while on the road. I improved the fan shrouding and got the operating temps down to 85 degress c max. So I don't think its temp. I'll drive it to work on Friday and look at the trans PIDS, see if I can see what changes when it does it. Excessive converter slip maybe??

Joel,

One of the TSTATE pids has a bit to indicate Hot mode... see if this bit is being set.

Yeah thats the one I've been monitoring that changes state from normal to Hot 2 Normal. There is a Hot table in the tune callibration but I don't see specifically HOT 2 Normal. It seems to fail on the same Road on my way home, predominantly in 4th gear with the TC locking and unlocking as requested.
