Question Code 11 Duty Sol. A done search but need more info.

Ok I've had my power lite on for a while usually starts after unplugging the resistor which according to other posts will cause the lite to come on. My question is there any way to get around plugging that back in (other than to ignore it) because if it is connected then the trans shifts way to slow w/flairing to be of any comfort. also as is the trans only thunks kinda hard (and only sometimes then) when shifting into D and rarely in the 1-2 shift. otherwise it shifts perfect.

alternately, replace the resistor with one having a higher ohm rating. Radio Shack sells a 50-Ohm, 10-watt power resistor (in a two pack) for $1.99 - of course you have to do a little wire surgery. You can go up to around 300-400 Ohms to increase the shift "harshness" without triggering the dreaded blinking light. However, my reading suggest if you go much over 60-75 Ohms (or leave the circuit open, i.e., unplugged resistor) you increase the likelihood of solenoid A's failure. This opinion was drawn from reading an account in an old issue of a trade rag (Gears) put out by the Automatic Transmission Rebuilder's Association (ATRA).
