4L60E to T56 Wiring
I'm not getting any help from the truck guys so maybe you guys can help me out. I swapped a T56 into my '01 Silverado 5.3L and need some help wiring it up. There is a black box on the left side of the auto trans with two connectors; one 7-pin and one 4-pin (see pictures below). I unplugged the black box and the truck won't start. To get it to start all I did was connect the yellow and the purple/black wires together on the 7-pin connector. That's it.
When running, the gear indicator says it's in 2nd gear. Seems to run fine, haven't gotten to drive it yet. Is it okay to have it wired like this? I could easily hook the yellow and purple/white wires to the clutch switch.
Can I ground some combination of pins on the 4-pin connector to get the gear indicator to display something else? Does it matter what it reads or does it have a "limp mode" in one or more of the gears/park/reverse?
Thanks!
