Re: [DML] Installing auto tranny comp

["Adam Price" <acprice1@xxxx>]

I plan to install my auto tranny computer this weekend. I crawled under the 
car today to get a look around, and I cant see where some of the cables 
connect.. my question is: are any of these cable connected to the top of the 
transmission, or anyother area that is blocked by the car? I really dont 
want to have to remove my transmission for this seemingly simple install.. 
Just what is involved with installing one of these anyway? What kind of 
things should I look for when removing or installing one?

Does the spindle gear have to be rotated to a specific position when 
installing?

Also, I noticed that one of the previous owners has attached a heat sink 
(looks like a CPU heat sink) to the metal cover of the module.. seems like a 
good idea to me! I wonder if he applied heat transferring silicon gel to the 
backs of the transistors inside.... has anyone else done this? Do you think 
it would make a noticable difference? I think I will do it to the new one as 
well.

Adam
