    First off you need to verify that converter is locking up and in what gear by
    pressing lightly on the brake pedal the converter should unlock.
    As for wiring the blue wire is the 4th gear switch, in your trans it normally closed until the trans shifts into 4th gear which will not work for your app.
    The tan/blk is the ground side of the tcc solenoid with it hooked to ground the trans should lock up in 2nd gear.You will either deal with it like this or you can put a 4th gear switch on valve body or on the side of the trans.
    I believe you can buy a kit for summit or jegs etc. might try a google search.

    what is exactely happening is when Iwired the purple wire to 12V brake switch an dwired blue together with tan/black it locked in all gear from 1 to 4...and even braking did not unlock...Then I've tried wiring still purple to that 12V ( by the way there are 2 brake switches at the pedal , one seems to have a vacuum? ) and tan/black to ground , blue to nothing and again locked in all gears ( did not try up to 4 ) then I've tried again purle to same 12V and blue to ground and tan/black to nothing and driving in city it did not lock in first 3 gears , did not try fats enouph so check 4 . So would that blue to ground and purple to 12v would be the way to lock in 4 only?
    Thanks lot!!!!
