Skip Shift Eliminator Problem
Has anyone heard or had a problem with the Cags bypass causing the car to overheat?
We had a customer state that when the bypass was installed the car hit 260 degrees and uninstalled it and it worked fine.
Any input would be nice.

I plugged the resistor(2200 ohms .5 watts) into mine 2 day ago--no overheating problem--Plug is located on tranny DRIVERS SIDE-only plug on that side of tranny- The pass side has 2 plugs-one is probably to keep you from going into reverse accidently-Have no idea what the other does-

Should be 1/2 watt = 0.5watt!
Just checking!
