Re: Any 6L80/6L90 experts out there?

So, when tuning out TCC PWM apply, is this done on the ECM side or the TCM side?

You really need to talk to a tuner about this, If it was a 4L80E/4L60E I could tell you exactly how to do it, But to answer your question......Trans & engine functions are separated in the tuning software no matter whether your running a PCM, ECM/External TCM or a ECM/Internal TCM.

I circled the Engine & Trans shortcuts.......
