    LB7 with LLY TCM permanent CEL questions

    New to the tuning thing, my built LB7 has an LLY TCM and because of that i have a permanent CEL i would like to get rid of. Is it as simple as loading a stock LB7 TCM file or will i need to change something in the OS to get rid of the solenoid G DTC code? I'm trying to learn all i can myself, but some of the information just isn't found with a Google search, and 95% of the tuning info for diesels is based on EFI Live.

    Post the file you have now. I think you will need to flash a TCM file from an LB7 like you mentioned that doesn't have the G solenoid. I was thinking some of the later LB7's had the G solenoid, but i could be wrong. I know the early LB7's did not.

    Think now, you can probably just click the box and disable the G code and see if that works first and its

    So your problem is the LB7 has a different valve body if the truck is a 01-03 model LB7. If you have a 2004 model LB7 you can absolutely run the LLY TCM with no issues though shift points might not be as optimal for your application. Send me your vin and Ill upload a proper write for your trucks TCM, also if you need anything else reach out and I can email you files. My email is [email protected] I own YAK PERFORMACE LLC in North Ga I love the Allison transmission but like many other transmission they are not indestructible so keep your ECM file below 500 hp if you want it to live and drive it with care don't beat on it especially on the 5-4 down shift.
