Since last week, I have no more speedometer, because the cruise control regulator is out.
I have noticed that speed changes are smoother at high revolving ranges (while overpassing for instance). Before it, the motor stayed one second at about 5000 t/mn in the second gear, maintaining the speed desperatly constant, and suddenly, the tranny selected the third gear and it was like a booster light on.
I think that the ECM gets its speed information from the speedo, and drives the converter lockup. I intend to put a new regulator when I receive it, but I would like to keep the smooth and efficient speed changes and save gas with the lockup converter...
I believe that something was going wrong, but what ? Throttle position sensor ? Wich way should I search ?
Does anybody know the logic of the ECM for the converter lockup ?
