Not really that hard, as you say, but a bit daunting as you get into it. Same as a lot of things. The cleaning of the assembly after all of the Dremel and bond wire removal is done is really the most difficult part. It has to be as clean as you can get it. On the TurboLamik Facebook page...

Once you have the assembly clean, clean, and clean, test continuity between all of the contacts and the metal case. None of them should be shorted to the metal case. If any of them are, then there is some metal debris down around the base of the contact and you need to clean it some more...

Put the valve body to the side, in a plastic bag, so that it does not get contaminated. Move the TCM/TCU/PCM assembly to another bench, away from the valve body and the transmission. You may want to spray it off with contact cleaner, or some other plastic safe electronics degreaser. The TCM...

Now you should have the valve body in the tray, next to the transmission. Push the transmission over to one end and cover it with a large plastic trash back to keep dust from getting inside. 13. The valve body has a plastic TCU/Connector/Wiring PCM assembly attached to the top side of it...

It is raining, I do not have any pressing projects, and I am waiting to see if I can register for Cruise MOAB. So, I am going to put some more detail up about the 8HP valve body removal and TCU jumper PCB installation. First, to summarize, there is a PCB inside of the valve body assembly that...

Waiting room now says registration is sold out. Anyone know how to get on the wait list?

Did not get booted, just got assigned a really high number.

Nope, not going to get there... only 15 slots remaining.....

I am below 200 now.... at #194. Do not think I will get a spot, but, will keep checking back. Doing some more write ups on my 8HP75 transmission swap into my J80, so, at least being productive while I wait.

What does that percentage mean? 37% of those who tried to register were successful? Or 37% of the slots are filled?

That is a bummer. Now makes me wonder if I want to keep checking back.

Well, that absolutely sucks. What number are you at now? I am at 246 and back up to 4 hr wait time.

I am now down to #250. Seems to be moving at the bottom of the barrel.

I am down to #266 and 2 hours of wait... Hope it did not crash. Grrrrr.
