Arh awesome! Sorry for my memory on that. I forget who does what after reading once so super sorry for the mistake.It was me that pioneered the toggle switches to test/use as a temporary shiftbox. Super easy, just find the yellow and orange solenoid wires at the TCU. Run each one to its own dedicated toggle switch, and run a 12v power to the other terminal of the toggle. Shift pattern is easy to remember too.
Both on: 1st Gear
Solenoid A off Solenoid B on = 2nd Gear
Both off: 3rd Gear
Solenoid A on/Solenoid B off = OD/4th.

I will look at making this and seeing if it works. Hopefully this will help me figure out the problem. I do recall someone saying about lights also and when they change but i dont remember who. I thought it was transdude but found nothing but do believe i saw it on tuners somewhere, possibly even with a drawing of some kind. Does this ring a bell with you and your memory? As i really wish to resolve this trans problem fully
Sweet, i shall check it all out and get ordering parts for this step. Its going to be the last step and then i can get it tested and then road legal once again!Not sure about the lights thing unless it used a lighted toggle switch to show when it’s powered or not. Or an in-line diode to see when the solenoid is being activated by the TCU.
Bud/welcome wagon here has a good write up on how to do it. My old username was Unwythe and I gave him the how to/instructions once upon a blue moon and he made the write up on his own vehicle.

I want to keep it as oem as i can so no mods really. I know brakes are not oem but in terms of engine and function its how i want it and i have just gotten the stock air box brackets to mount that as oem was. Last piece of the puzzle done. So the wire mod is not where i want to head down but the wiring for the switches is doable as its to test it and reverseable.If the toggle switches work, I’d highly recommend doing the kiggly shifter mod. It makes an auto dsm a joy to drive. Almost manual like. And no need to worry about accidentally skipping gears. Lol.

I shall take a deeper look into it if its all going to look stock and work sith oem parts. Thanks for the tip dudeFair point. But the kiggly shifter mod uses the stock shifter and is reversible. You just need another shift selector or pigtail for the shift selector that you can add the resistors to. If you looked in the bay or in the interior it would look 100% OEM.
