Testing The TORQLOC (with an exhaust brake)
With the module pulled out enough to be easily visible while driving, take the vehicle
for a drive. Turn the brake on and first check that the LED light comes on once the
vehicle has surpassed the set speed. On some Ford trucks the LED will only come
on above the set speed when the throttle is returned to idle. If the LED fails to
illuminate after the set speed, check the dip-switch settings, the VSS wire color and
the connection to that wire, the wire is on the right terminal at the module, and make
sure there is a good power source and ground for the module.
With no traffic around, turn on the exhaust brake then cruise at a constant speed
above the set speed on the module, then let off the throttle. The brake should have
activated and you should feel the hold back. Turn the brake off to make sure the
brake and lock-up clutch disengages. Turn the brake on and cruise again at a
constant speed, then let off the throttle and let the vehicle slow down below the set
speed, making sure the lock-up releases below the set speed. If these situations
fail to occur, then check the wiring to the brake and module, and check terminal
locations on the module.
On Dodges, after starting up the truck and starting drive, the O/D off light should
have illuminated (if that option was hooked up). With the brake turned on, drive
until overdrive is reached then let off the throttle. With the brake and lock-up clutch
engaged, push the overdrive button to check that the lock-up clutch disengages and
the transmission shifts out of overdrive. If this fails to occur, check the O/D wire
color and connection to that wire, and that the wire is on the right terminal at the
module.
If any of the functions still fail to occur, phone our technical service department for
further assistance. If it is necessary to bypass the Torqloc, disconnect the Blue and
Yellow Torqloc wires from the factory TCC wire which was cut to install the Torqloc
& reconnect the factory wires back together.
After final wiring and testing has been done on the vehicle, mark the label on the
module for the application (vehicle and kit part number). Secure module to a
harness or bracket under dash with tie wraps.
