It is really locked. Just like coming to a stop with a manual trans and not pushing the clutch in. Add that to it only doing it when cold and the diesel engine at fast idle - it can get a little scary if not ready for it. I always am now. I just quickly throw it into neutral. Then when I put it back into DRIVE, it will stall the engine once or twice (just like popping the clutch in a manual). When it finally jars loose it works fine. I can start it, turn it off, start it again all day long and it will work fine. Next morning -if it is 60 F or colder, it happens all over again.
This truck has a computer just for the trans and I don't think it is highly complex. It gives me no error messages from these "stuck" events. When I added the shut-off switch however - it then goes into default "limp" mode and I get error 23. Code 23 means a problem with the throttle-position sensor on the injection pump and I know that is working fine. So it seems that when the converter is told to "lock" and it does not - it confuses the computer. I doubt this is an electronic issue but have no way of knowing for sure. Has a brand new solenoid pack in it and it is OEM and not el-cheapo.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
