Bill Anthony/Tony Gonyon:  Introduction to Transmission Calibrations Using HP Tuners Editor and Diagnostics Software with the MPVI3: Thursday, 9:45AM – 11:45AM

In this Seminar we will go over a basic understanding of how and why to make changes to improve durability and performance of a transmission unit by introducing the HP Tuners Editor and Scanner software which allows the end user to view Emissions Monitor checks for completion, diagnose, read, modify, and write, using the Editor software with the MPVI3, through the vehicles OBDII Port.

Transmission Calibrations such as Convertor lockup, slip, shift points, torque management, shift pressures, and of course Speedometer calibrations are easily calibrated using the Editor/ Scanner Software and then using the Scanner software to verify these calibrations are being completed as commanded results in less troubleshooting time, the transmission working properly, reducing warranty claims and comebacks, and a satisfied customer base.

The goal is understanding these functions using HP Tuners Hardware and Software.
