4l60 torque converter won't stay locked
What is the best way to make these transmissions stay locked up in 3rd? I am having trouble keeping the converter locked with the trailer behind at highway speeds, which results in higher trans temps ...

It's a 92 k1500, 6,000lb high side trailer. Won't stay locked up over about 45-50mph. Trans is in good shape, is there a way to wire the torque converter lockup solenoid to a toggle switch so that when towing I can hit the switch? Trans temps in the pan are hitting 205-210 when trying to maintain 55-60mph.
Ok, 4L60E came out in 1993. I think the 700R4 was renamed 4L60.... No E in 91 or 92.
Look at the throttle linkage for a throttle VALVE cable and or lockdown cable. If you have these it is not computer controlled.
