I installed a SW temp gauge, the sender is in the line between the trans and cooler (out going fluid from trans before cooler) the temp will do almost immediate swings of 40 to 50 degrees depending whether the T/C is locked or unlocked.
I have a manual switch set up for shifting.
Am I correct in the thought that when the T/C is locked, there is no or very low fluid flow going to the cooler loop ?
If it shuts off when locked I could understand the quick drop in temp display on the gauge as the sender is in flex line, the wind stream behind the radiator.
The next time I have the trans pan off I will be relocating the sender to the pan.
