The torque converter is fully locked because the engine & turbine speeds are identical. At this point, though, the throttle input is down to 30-40% because you’re backing off, so the TCC PWM solenoid doesn’t appear to be at maximum pressure.

Thanks Phil for the explanation. Now need to find out why the TCC solenoid isn't at full pressure. Any ideas? Or need more information?

I’ve had a look at the last four runs that you sent to me.

I don’t see any evidence of an issue with the TCC PWM solenoid. On the contrary, the LUC appears to be responding exactly the way you’d expect to the solenoid signal. I think if you want to see the LUC operating in 3rd, 4th & 5th gears you will need to get the fluid temperature up to ‘normal’ i.e. 90°C+

Hi all. Sad news now; I got the Trans Failsafe Progr. message and car is only shifting up to 3rd now and stays there (no up- or down shifts).
