TV Cable Purpose

Q: TV Cable Purpose

I am installing a thm 350 in place of my manual trans. how important, and what does th tv cable do?

A: You can run without it, but you won’t be happy. The TV cable is what tells your trans to downshift when you stomp it (i.e. passing). A lot of people call it passing gear, but it’s just a downshift. Also, if you run without it, you will need to plug it’s hole or you will leak trans fluid. My cable was broken when I got the car, but the casing was still there and I could drive it with no problems until I could get one and had time to install it.

A: The TV cable also controls how hard the tranny shifts
