TCM Paddle Shift Demo

Demonstration of my homemade transmission control module (TCM) with paddle shifting. Vehicle is a 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT with a 4.6L Cadillac Northstar engine. Video shows how the TCM is programmed via laptop, installation, and in-vehicle testing. (Note that the wiring harness, paddle shifter mechanism, and gear indicator had already been installed at this point.) Vehicle is 100% manual control. Just like a stick shift, you can put it in 1st on the highway. But it can be programmed to lock out gears according to vehicle speed. Torque converter lockup is treated as a 5th gear.

hey is this an old video or do you have it back up and running again?

[gijim2000]

Is this The Shaun? It's been running for a while now. It sat for a while when I sold the wiring harness, but I built a brand new one and it's been driving ever since.

I like it! Exactly what I've been looking for to make me like the 65e in my fiero. Would you be interested in giving me some more info?

[gijim2000]

Info to build or to buy? I might be offering both... :)

[SlowSBCFiero]

Its me. this is me too/ :) cool man glad to see you got it back up and running. I have been telling my buddy in canada if you would be willing to buy a harness from you for his nstar swap since he sold his aftermarket ecu. It was the holley 950.
