After reading about the tranny resistor...
I had to see what it felt like with the resistor unplugged.
Unplugged it and drove around a bit to get the engine and trans warm and pulled up to an appropriate red light. All I can say is wow. I will be making myself a 20 ohm resistor this weekend. This is how the car should have shifted all along. I plugged it back in when I got home, but 1 drive was enough to convince me of what is needed. No real info... just felt like sharing.  Jim

This may be entirely coincidental, but I recently found my resistor was unplugged at the time of my last trans failure and only for the duration of that day it was driven. Take this info for what you will.

I believe through my recent experience that unplugging the resistor accelerates transmission fatality
