I went and got a 33 ohm resistor and tried that had no luck either? COULD IT BE SOMETHING W MY TRANNY? I had a switch on it about a year ago and it worked perfect it quit working so i took it off..... I ran all new wires and made sure everything is getting a good connection...doesnt look like im going to get to pull tonight with it

I am not too sure how the ATS VB works, but you might have to put the co-pilot back on to be able to control lock-up. With the ATS VB, the old way of a lock-up SW may not work with the VB electronics. Put the co-pilot back on and see if that helps at all....???

Well I put the co pilot on today and the lock up switch works once i get into 2nd gear before it would lock up as soon as i flipped it......I used to run just a straight ground wire w no resitor and now i have a 33 ohm resistor...could this be beacause of the restrictor or the some of the seetings of the co pilot

I would lean more to the co-pilot settings....you really dont want to lock-up before second anyways, 1-2 shift while locked=damage....
Glad to see it works though....you might try taking out the resistor and seeing if that makes a difference.
