Jimbob,

So could I install a trans temp gauge and know what the actual temp is? What should the temp be?

It is something my buddy and I thought it could be but the trans temp light never came on before the switch was installed.

Checked fluid and there was no discoloration or burnt smell and it was in the safe zone.

As far as battery cables will have to check positive cables but think they looked ok, but that doesn't mean anything. Since I have bypassed the TPS and have a potentiometer in place doubt that is it, but What wire did you install noise suppressor?
