auto gearlock on/off problem

Anybody ? has had similar problem:

On a long journey: GXE autotranny gearlock works fine for a while (1hr), then will not (2½hours)... After one hour stop, colder weather, works again without any problem (2hours).
Speed was constant around 60mph (50 is winter maximus here) except while passing slower ones (80-90).

Problem solution, any suggestions, please.

FYI: With VG30E knock sensor resistor -bypassed, I did get first time over 30miles per gallon on snow paved roads...

sounds like an electrical problem, maybe bad grounds

Hmmm. GRRR. Missing my ground breaking -morning news???

So what should I do? I do not yet have the rubber ? tail -strip 'grounding' my rear plastic bumper to the asphalt errr snow...

Really, I will buy one el freezer bottle to spray my TCU if/when this problem arrives again. Have not yet found GND -bott less...

Happened to me? ...one week escape trip.
