Transbrake wiring... Rossler 4L80E.. Im just about to wire my Rossler transbrake on the 4L80e I just installed... the unit has a sender looking deal that sticks out of the Moroso pan. Im assuming the unit has internal power, inside the pan. So I have a hanle shifter installed with a button on it... 2 wires on the shifter. I had the trans built by FLT, the brake was installed there, but I didnt get any specifics on wiring the brake.
Anyone know how to wire this thing up? It looks relatively simple but I did a search and heard of possibly using a relay.... fuses... etc. Im thinking since the brake is internally powered that all I need to do is connect one wire from the shifter to the external hookup and the other wire from the shifter to a good ground. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance.

that heap almost done?
For my transbrake we used a relay to be safe, but the relay is also used to disactivate the nitrous when the transbrake button is down.
Im pretty sure you can do it either way I just dont remember as we did mine in a hurry on raceday and had to get it done quickly.

Im going to wire up my flt/rossle trans brake on my 4l65e tmrw. I thought you would just ground the external hookup coming out of the pan using a switch to activate the brake?

I just called Rossler about an hr ago but Carl wasnt available and neither was another tech that specializes in this stuff. I left my #, hope they call back soon.

Thanks guys.... Carl actually called me this morning and gave me the info I needed, same as already stated. 12V to the pan through a switch and its good to go.
