Auto tranny temp is too low?

I have a 1996 gle, and recently installed a B&M cooler (planning a vb mod). i also installed a tranny temp gauge, but it usually is 110-130 on the highway, and never past ~150 in the city traffic. is that ok?

Doe's your OD kicking on once the tranny is up to tmep? If so, then your running at a good temp. If it's to cold, OD will not activate.

i think OD is working the same way it did before the cooler. i'll pay close attention to it next time

Re: Auto tranny temp is too low?

Make sure your tranny temp sender is grounded well. The better the ground the more accurate the reading would be.
