    Do you unplug the wires when measuring the voltage at idling or go "through"/ skin the wire and measure with it plugged in?

    4L80E No shift from 2nd---SOLVED!

    Hi, glad you found the problem. I also have the 85 and 86 code on my hmmwv. It happend after i changed the regulator on top of alternator. I guess it was bad or something. May it have damaged some of my sensors? TISS, TOSS or TPS. Can I measure on it to see if it is good or bad?

    Mep 803A Voltage 3phase

    Hi, Is it possible to tune up the voltage on 3phase a little bit? It says 120v/208v on the swtich. When i turn up the voltage knob to max it give me around 210-215v. I would have hoped to get it up to 230v since that is the voltage we use in Europe Any tips and tricks?
