    I think my lock up mate had a hearty today. The converter remained locked and blue LED on continually. It stalled numerous times on the boss today then I twigged, got her to turn it off and all was good. Maybe this is related to the issue I had the other week with it throwing code 1901 on the auto ECU. Marshall any Ideas? Not to fussed as it is booked in for the upgrade anyway.

      Not good for the boss!
      Certainly first I’ve heard of that happening! Sound like the TCC is not unlocking.
      I suspect maybe the OBD2 connector is a little loose causing corrupted CANBus information. The Challenger OBD connector can be temperamental.
      Please send me the unit (and cables) and I’ll investigate ASAP.
      PM me you details so I know which upgrade order is yours.

        No problem. I actually received the upgrade return bag today so I'll bung all the leads in it including the OBD lead. I'll PM you my details.

          Hi M & M,
          Started fitting my Automate this arvo and got to the stage of clamping the resistor. However, bolted to the top of the plate is a big flat bracket coming back (away from the engine) with an electronic control component of some type on top (about the size of the Automate controller), I have no idea what it is, but it certainly gets in the way so I went back to square 1 and screwed it down to the dash bracket.
          Anyway, soldering step tomorrow. Just to make absolutely sure I get the wiring connections correct, the white wire from the plug attaches to the orange and the red stripe wire from the plug attaches to the yellow wire? In the photo in the installation instructions it looks like the orange wire goes to the end of the connector where the red stripe wire is.

            Please ignore my question regarding the soldering, the white wire isn't cut at all, just the red stripe wire!!!

              Yes, just the yellow/red stripe wire is cut. The cut piece that goes to the white connector gets the orange wire. Yellow wire to the other end of the cut Y/R wire.

                Had my auto mate in a couple of weeks now. And although I’ve only done a couple of longish drives I’ve noticed it’s beginning to Learn and 2nd to 3rd gear changes are starting to smooth off (they were a bit clunky at first). Not sure if it had anything to do with my idrive being fitted and in auto mode.

                But definitely seems a good bit of kit.

                      Fitted my Auto mate on Sunday. Should be a good bit of kit. Bit clunky atm but apparently it gets better after it learns up a bit. But it looks like I'll be the only one who uses it as the boss doesn't like it so it's off when she drives it...

                          Hey OJ.

                          Std size tyres and no it was with the E Drive on but it's the trans is clunky in it's changes as the converter is locked. But that's at light throttle, I found giving it a little more than light throttle it's much less noticeable. I'll see how it learns up and try some of it's features.

                            auto-mate for challenger just got better

                            I know quite a few people who monitor this thread have a lockup-mate or auto-mate.

                            Latest SW release is available - it includes an adjustable shift pattern and ultra-low power consumption in standby mode.

                            see this thread for details. https://www2.pajeroclub.com.au/forum...d.php?p=618728

                              Just installed my automate into 2011 PB challenger.

                              immediately appreciated the difference upon first test drive. Holding gears and changing at better rpm felt smooth and strong.

                              The gears transitions are more noticeable when unladen however not rough by any means.

                              I’ll be out for a tip run today with about 1 tonne behind so will see how it goes!

                              I think I’ll be investing in a mild tune in any case!

                              btw: install was well described and quite easy took me about 2 hours.

                                Great to here. Marshall's products are real game changers.

                                I'm only running the LM8 but but with a DP Chip and 265/75/16s have had no issues whatsoever so thinking a mild tune shouldn't be a problem.
