Default TC Lock and Unlock

Comprimised,

I believe what your buddy is experiencing is electrical noise. The TC will lock and unlock around a specfic speed and it gets annoying as hell. There are several write ups regarding this along with different approaches that people have used. From all the reading I have done and having this happen to me, I did the suncoast re-wire and it worked well. Check out this THREAD

SunCoast rewire ans an APPS adjust and rest would be the best place to start. Ver cost efficient!

i usually just move the alternator wires around and it fixes mine for several months. Sometimes I have to clean the battery grounds also.
