Hi,

when changing my PCM settings, I noticed I can disable CAGS/CARS there, so the CAGS plug I got is left over ... it's a professional quality plug, using OEM connectors that go in between the cable and the transmission. Works great, doesn't trigger any SES light or anything ... should work for any T56 equipped 4th gen I recon ... ought to work on Corvette C5, too ...

With your driving style, Jeejee, you should not get the PCM to activate the CAGS ;)


Apart from that, it's sold ...

The way it works (in the vette at least) is that if you are in 1st gear at less than 10% throttle and below 20mph for more than a few seconds and try to shift into 2nd, it forces the shifter over to 4th. The only time it's really a prolem is when you're in traffic, and then you can just double clutch to get around it. The only reason it's there is to get around the EPA fuel economy testing so we don't have to pay gas-guzzler tax :D .

PCM tables on the LSx control the min- and max-points of the CAGS solenoid activation ... on mine it's:

Speed between 24 and 32 km/h, throttle below 25%, coolant temperature over 77* C ... I recon with the LS1 coming from an F-Body, it's probably the same on your PCM ...
