Hi, After lots of searching and asking various people, I am trying to find out if the mystical T/C lock up switch actually exists, as I have made no headway whatsoever in finding the answer. As the T/C is a mechanical device, locking down on the gearbox shaft at a certain amount of revolutions depending on its stall speed, I cant see that it's possible to lock it with a solenoid via a switch etc. Yet numerous references are about re this lock-up switch. I have a high stall T/C in my own car and for lots of reasons this switch would be very convienient. Can anyone give me a clear answer as to whether this is a " real " working option or just a nice idea that never has been worked. Many thanks in advance.
