Default 4L60e no lockup

freshly built 4l60 circle d 3200, sonnax performance pack valve body mods, raybestos clutches, sunshell, planetarys etc etc

We have deleted PWM with the sonnax kit so it is now an on/off converter (I hope we did that right)

The torque converter will NOT lock up ON IT'S OWN. When I command 'TCC SOLENOID ON' in hptuners, it will lockup.

In hptuners, I notice there are 3 channels for "TCC applied". I scanned all 3. When I reach my tunes lockup speed I notice one of the channels shows "TCC applied: Yes", but I do not physically feel it locking. Then, when I command the tcc solenoid on, one of the other "TCC applied" channels then also turns to 'yes' and I feel the converter succefully lock and rpms drop.

I attached my tune and logs

What is the difference in the TCC applied channels? why isn't my converter locking? I suspect it's coming down to the solenoid because I don't have to command "tcc locked" in VCM scanner, just the solenoid on when I am at lockup speeds. But what it preventing solenoid from activating on it's own?

ALSO, the converter will remain locked with "TCC solenoid ON" deselected, it will remain locked until I click the TCC solenoid OFF button. it will show tcc min tps off YES and tcc brake switch off YES and tcc applied no, but the other tcc applied channel will still say yes until I click SOLENOID OFF

Spliced TCC solenoid wire to PWM solenoid activation wire since pwm was mechanically deleted. Have got it to successfully lock and unlock on its own

I'm having the similar problem as you with my l96 4l60e swap. How did you rewire it?

I cant remember the pin numbers on my P01 but theyre both power wires so took the TCC solenoid wire out of ECU and connected it to the TCC PWM power wire next to it so it turns on with PWM solenoid

Did you wire the tcc circuit through the brake switch?
