Default 4L60E tuning?

just put in a SS4000 and was wondering what kinda tuning or work has to be done to get the codes to quit popping up, have a shift kit and tranny cooler already on it. it drives fine but then unlocks for a while and locks back up. i discovered that when i have me scan tool conected while driving and it locks if i erase the codes, even though a light doesnt come one, it will lock back up. can any tuner mess with it to get it to quit unlocking at random? if so what exactly do they do to fix it?

If there are any codes you need to have them looked at. Ignore them too long and say goodbye to that transmission...

What codes are you getting?

You need to raise the values for the misfire tables to 32767. The TC will unlock once a mifire has been detected.

shift solenoid performance/slip and shift solenoid stuck open, like P0757, P0756 i think i'll have to look and see, but it didnt do any of this till i went from the 3000 stall to the 4000 stall, i'll get the codes post them later, oh and its not throwing on the SES light. its under the DTS not ran SCC section of my diablo hand held, i think its a section that keeps them in there in case it keeps on doing what that code is for? i have to look... the only code that it is throwing into my history but still not throwing on the light is a P0154 i think, it says bank 2 sensor 1 no activity. i replaced the 02 sensors after that and it still puts it in th history but doesnt turn on the ses light. i'll go get the codes and post them shortly... but remember its not putting these in my history.

ok the codes not ran SINCE CODE CLEARED, that section i saw a P0751, P0752, P0756, AND P0757 cause i cleared the P0756 code. it has not been thrown since i cleared it several days ago. they are not being thrown so that section of the tuner i dont have to worry about.. the only code that is being thrown is a P0154 and i dont know why, and it still isnt turning on the SES light. i replaced the o2 sensors so i dont know what it could be.

no i am not trying to tune it with the diablo, i'm just using it as a scan tool its not even mine. i have a very large cooler mounted up front and it is fed directly, i put plugs in the radiators cooler line holes. so cooling should not be a problem on that trans
