Can a chip blow up your 4l80E??
I may have to go to court over a transmission failure, the repair shop, rebuilt my tranny, that blew up on the way home. He said the computer said e-prom failure and that caused the solenoids to engage at the wrong time, causing the tranny to reach 300 degrees before it blew up. Now this happened in about 15 seconds, i could not pull over fast enough.
I have a e-tork from heath, who has been wonderful but said this cannot cause a failure. Per other shops said it was either a cooling issue or bad converter, but that the ecm would put the tranny into limp mode if the computer of e-prom failed. What I need is some kind of proof, but am having a problem finding it.
Can anybody help? At least direct me to the right people? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
