Thank you so much for sharing this! Have a 1991 Silverado 1500 that I put an LS motor in and was having trouble getting the 700 to lock the converter. Thanks to your video and about 10 minutes worth of time I am all set! Can’t express my appreciation enough! 🙂
I just installed a 700r4 from an 88 pick up into a 77 squarebody. As soon as i connected it like shown here my torque converter worked properly. Couldnt believe it was that simple. Thanks for the great video!
@@MunchinMaQuchy yes it's working great. I don't know a lot about this stuff but i didn't think TC lock up was supposed to happen in 2nd, only 3rd and 4th... Maybe u have something else going on there? Also did u wire in a switch for TC lock up? Pretty sure he talked about that in the video
@@ryantollenaar7352 I have a 3 wire connection just like in vid. The 700 does have the ability too lockup in 2,3 or 4 but not first. It works fine and has no problem shifting, but it won't do it in 4th. I think i had a early valve body and have too get a different solenoid for 4th. Which involves dropping the pan (ugh).
Thank you John, I wasn't sure how to make lock up happen since my 700r4 is an 1989 model with no ports. So glad I dont have to mess with that valve body wiring lol.
No need to connect the two wires, you only have the one power wire coming out of the internal plug. I always just cut them off, also people are always saying you can't run self grounding solenoid just BS, solenoid is your grounding point.
Thanks so much!! It's all making sense now. I definitely needed explanation of this component's evolution throughout the years. GM made so many configurations for this circuit, which leads to a lot of very confusing conversation on various forums.
My 83 700 R4 has two wires coming off of the solenoid one goes to the fourth gear pressure switch. Then you have a jumper over to the third gear pressure switch which enables it to lock up in third gear. Therefore, there are two different wiring, set up some of the early valve body.. if there is a casting mark over the cooling outlets, you know you have an 87 or newer 4L60.
Very informative. Nada lota YadaYada! Thank You for a straight to the point video. Wish they were all like that! I have one question just to be clear. On the two wires connected together, Do I still have to ground them to the case? Or just heat shrink them together? I guess thats only one question, just worded it differently. Thank you for your time, Mike.
I have a question, what is the actual purpose of the wiring harness pigtail? My 92 GMC RWD doesn’t want to shift into reverse. Anything helps. Many thanks. 🤙🏽
Great information. I appreciate this video so much. I got a 700 from a 91 van that I want to swap into my 83 El Camino with the carbureted stock v8. So I don't need to mess with the inside of the trans at all. Just put 12 volts to that one wire and Bridge the other two. Right?
I have a 1990 Corvette convertible, and just installed a B&M shift kit. The second valve body you showed is the one I have. I only want the lock up in 4th gear only. The rear main seal is starting to leak so I might as well install a 2,200 stall speed converter.
My rebuilt 350 has what they would call an RV cam I guess, it doesn't thump really hard, it just sounds like a slightly bigger cam Hopefully I can do the twist the wires together and run the purple to a 12v toggle
hey got a question for you i have 1990 k5 blazer 700r4 trans..i just rebuild my engine and did lot of up grades i converted it over from tbi to carb so i no with out my computer i wont have no converter lock up ..so what u suggest would be the right converter lockup kit to buy i dont want to drive my truck with out it ..i no my trans may it hot with out it..let me know thanks..appreciate it..
Hey there I just installed my turbo 350c transmission in my 74 pickup took out the turbo 400 and use that torque converter in the 350 and nothing it moved for about a block and that was it what should I do any input would be great thank you
Interesting. I have new transmission and motor ... 350 RV motor and the 700R4 ....... it does have a motor home cam. . ... so this will NOT work or do you have a dash switch or something that would help
I had the same setup in my '81 GMC & just ran a manually switched 12v to the trans. Mounted switch on dash so i could lock it up in any gear, just don't forget to turn it off before you stop or if shifting is harsh. Works best on freeways & open roads. Just a suggestion. ✌
hey 1990 k5 blazer with the 700r4 i converted from tbi to carb so i dont have the computer for lock up anymore...so i hook a toggle switch up with the 3 wires from my pig tail plug do i leave my switch on at all times or will i mess up something if i dont shut it off when im at a low soeed...i appreciate your feedback.....
Good video man. I'm gonna install a B&M 700R4 in my 1971 C/20. However I do have a cam with a large overlap. What do u recommend for a lockup with a big cam?
The solenoid has 12v on the positive wire but it isn't grounded. When it goes into 4th oil pressure is applied the the 4th gear switch which grounds the switch to the transmission competing the circuit to the lockup solenoid.
I don't know if you will see this but I have a carbed 87 camaro. I did this, it works but I'm getting lock up in 2-3 and not 4th. Any idea why? Wiring mabye.
I just bought this 700r4 an hour ago ...the Auto Wrecking yard said it is a 1988 700r4... the number off of the trans is 2WCM083B...You said the first number (2) reresents the year...who's right ? Thanks ! Liked/Subscribed
@@ElsoshGhost You're right...I returned the trans right after I found out the Auto Wrecking yard B&R Auto Wrecking in Oregon lied right to my face ! Thanks !
Can you or someone in here help me out? I just rebuilt a 700r4 and it shifts beautifully all except wont shift into 4th. I had installed the transmission into a Chevy LUV minitruck and the only way to take it back out is to completely remove the cab. In other words its allot of work to take it back out. Is there something i can do to the valve body to fix the problem? Has anyone had this happen before? Also does the lockup solenoid have to be energized to go into 4th gear? I never connected it because the torque converter I installed with it doesn’t have lockup. Thanks
I have an 87 700r4 put I only have 2 wires not 3 what do I do with the one wire I know 1 is 12 volts. , I do know that my dad bought it new in December of 86 and it's throttle body efi
Hey i have a late model 700r4 like the 1 your demonstrating, my lock up kicks in too early in 3rd gear while accelerating and bogs my engine way down. What can i do to fix this?
@@ElsoshGhost not sure, I'm going to call the transmission guy who rebuilt it tomorrow. When i get on it and it hits 3rd the transmssion bogs the engine way down
@@supert1255 ok, i have another 700 with a kit from bowler transmission, their instructions were to remove all wiring to other switches than the 4th one. I suspect that your issue is the reason.. their soultion/kit is flawless, but expensive for what it is. Good luck!
Hey man good video so what if I’m cruising down the road and I’m in overdrive and locked up and I need locked up to unlock but I need overdrive will it only unlocks if it goes down to third
The company that built my transmission has me using this set up on the 2004R in my Chevelle. It tends To Be slow coming out of lock up. I do have an aggressive Cam. What should I Don?
I have a terrible time with the transmission coming out of lockup after switching off the toggle switch that I have hooked up now. It seems to lock up ok above 60mph, but I have to give it about a mile before dropping down from highway speeds or it almost stalls the car. would I remove the toggle switch I have installed now, if I install the low vacuum switch?
I had a toggle switch hooked the lock up solenoid on a 85 Caprice 700R4 and it would control lock up as long as I would remember to flip the switch just before applying the brake it worked great. If I forget to flip the switch and stop the car no problem but would cause lockup to occur right after it shift to second not so bad if barely into the throttle opening or if the speed was fast enough for second when getting back off the brakes it would stall slightly. I got used to getting of the gas if forgotten trying to not destroy it and remembering to flip the switch came normal after driving it as a daily for several years. I could flip the switch a second before the top of second gear and run lock up in second and get at least ten miles per hour more into 3 at almost 100 and once it was locked it stayed lock even at full throttle. I had an 86 Caprice years before the 85 and it seemed to unlock at full throttle it would unlocked at 90 to 100 miles per hour it would down shift to full rpm and hold it back limiting it to that speed this didn't have a toggle, But with the switch the 85 would run to the top of third and go into overdrive manually shifted . It had so much more top end!
I wish I could do this on my 1981 corvette project with the TH350C 3 SPEED! It's built ,modified Vortecs heads, cam, exhaust, prom stage II jet chip, but kept ecm, distributor ,and carb if only to keep the lock-up functioning. If this trick worked i would dump computer and carb and do Edelbrock or Holley and vacuum advance distrib. But i thin my lock-up trips with several parameters including engine temp...Any Ideas if this will work...I can also buy a th200r4 and the aftermarket crosbrace but that'll be$ $$$.$$ I think I have those three same wires on left side trans....Thanks
You can , use a lock up/vacuum switch from a mid 80s chev pickup for the 350c . It is positive switched triggered by ported vacuum. It is fed power from the brake pedal switch when not pressed or directly from a 12v scorce , switched or not. Diagrams are available online.
@@jimroy969 This would allow me to pull my electroic advance distributor and change carb! Do you have a link to this retro -fit? So i need the lock-up switch from a 80s pick-up and is the switch set-up something I can pull at a bone yard? meaning the brake pedal mounted switch?
There is a video you my find helpful : " How to understand 80's Silverado/Sierra TTC lock up." Posted by : Tyler's forgotten car rescue , on UA-cam. Your electronic Quadrajet and distributor can be replaced with one from a 1975 to 1980 , non electronic. Trucks may have went up to 1986. Hook the distributor advance to a manifold vacuum port , the TTC switch must be hooked to a ported vacuum port . Set the base timing @14° BTDC and you should be good to go. The brake switch could be removed from the truck also. There are also numerous very informative and detailed quadrajet videos on the same channel. Hope this helps.
Hi Juys, I bought a 76 Jeep with 88 Chevy 4.3 engine without transmission. So, I bought a 94 700r4 transmission, but I don't know if I will require a module or hardness to put this transmission to work. Thank you in advance.
So.. you are saying. All you have to do is have outer plug wire to 12 volts and the other 2 wires connected together? Don't have to change any wires inside the trans ..
What does a big cam have to do with it? I have a "cam" but it is a roller cam in a gen1 400, stock lockup converter and a 700r4- idles around 800, low vacuum. Will this have any effect on this porcedure?
Hey I just seen this do you really have to just hook up the three wires and one wire to 12 volt does it really work somebody let me know please I know it's an old video thank you
@@mussabakram5875 the lock up solenoid should have between 24 and 26 ohms of resistance. You can also hook the black wire to ground and touch the red wire to 12 volts and listen for a click.
@@johnbatakis8570 I don't want it to go into 3rd at 55 mph lol. Or downhill. You can't fuck around with 700r4 or your gonna burn it up. Why don't they just do this at the factory if it works so good lmao???😆
Okay Mr. Batakis. Have read all kinds of sh** about brake switches and relays or 6-pin connector switch and so on. You seem to know your business so I went ahead and ordered and installed the 4th gear switch for the 90 camaro md8 (Normally opened I'm assuming). Just want to be sure of this so now I ask: tap into a "switched" (key on only) 12 volt source for the TCC wire, and then wire the other 2 wires together. And that's it. Will lock up in 4th and unlock out of 4th, right? The trans is a 200 4R (KZF code) that was pulled from an 87 cutlass 442 and installed into my 78 cutlass cruiser wagon. Look forward to your response (and thanks in advance).

@@johnbatakis8570 thank you just did what you said will be testing the car on a high way.
Hey how can i check the solenoid if its working or bad?
@@mussabakram5875 the lock up solenoid should have between 24 and 26 ohms of resistance. You can also hook the black wire to ground and touch the red wire to 12 volts and listen for a click.
I have a big cam wjat doni do
Tried the wiring on my 1988. Did not work locks up instantly. TV cable no matter what adjustment shifts early. I call bs
😆
Fuck I just sold my transmission for one hundred.
So then what happens when I hit the brakes and the fucking torque converter doesn't unlock lol?
the fucking trans downs shifts into 3rd and the converter unlocks
@@johnbatakis8570 I don't want it to go into 3rd at 55 mph lol. Or downhill. You can't fuck around with 700r4 or your gonna burn it up. Why don't they just do this at the factory if it works so good lmao???😆
@@thehulkamaniabrother2.089 my 700r4 shifts out of 1st at 56mph 2nd at 100 lmao
Will wiring like this work on a 1986 200r4?
200r4 needs 4th gear switch changed to normally open switch buy from gm dealer 90 camaro md8 forth gear switch ground solenoid to switch
@@johnbatakis8570 Thank you
Okay Mr. Batakis. Have read all kinds of sh** about brake switches and relays or 6-pin connector switch and so on. You seem to know your business so I went ahead and ordered and installed the 4th gear switch for the 90 camaro md8 (Normally opened I'm assuming). Just want to be sure of this so now I ask: tap into a "switched" (key on only) 12 volt source for the TCC wire, and then wire the other 2 wires together. And that's it. Will lock up in 4th and unlock out of 4th, right? The trans is a 200 4R (KZF code) that was pulled from an 87 cutlass 442 and installed into my 78 cutlass cruiser wagon. Look forward to your response (and thanks in advance).
