    Default E38 C1,2 4wdlo input doesn't work

    There is thread in the T42 tranny section about this but I thought I'll better bring it to a point in here:

    Summary:
    2hi ok -- 2wd tun in TCM -- 4lo not ok
    2hi not ok -- 4wd tun in TCM -- 4lo ok

    Conversion:

    '97 NP241 electric shift TC. VSS in TC tailshaft. This VSS signal wired to the VSS inputs of the TCM.

    Important:

    parallel to the TCM's VSS inputs is a '95 VSSB to get the necessary signals for the '97 antilock (128.000 pulses/mile) . The signals look ok.

    speed limit 4lo:
    intermittent works on 4lo and 2hi
    intermittent doesn't work on 4lo and 2hi this happens without changing anything

    Facts:
    4wdlo input ECM C1,2 PIN is grounded when in 4lo, circiut checked and ok

    guesswork:
    1st guess: The OS (2007 Tahoe with NP8 option) isn't reading the C1,2
    2nd guess: the VSSB parallel to the TCM's VSS inputs confuses things.. sometimes.. which could explain those non conclusive results I have when testing.

    help:

    how can I check/activate the 4wdlo C1,2 input on the E38. My OS and tune supports option NP8 which should activate that pin. ( At least in my schematics I have a (NP8) behind C1,2 4wdlo).. Could anyone agree to the option NP8 (automatic trans case) supporting that C1,2 4wdlo input pin ????

    Can I programm the E38 VSS output to get my '97 antilock working with it.?

    Default E38 VSS pin

    Last question to the E38's VSS pin:

    if H0159 is activated, can I adjust that output with H0105 and is H0105 only acting on the ECM's VSS output ( I think pin 57..) and not on all the other VSS values on the GMLAN?

    Default GM docs

    this is was the GM docs say about the TC options and the C1,2 input of the E38, could be correct but must not be correct...
