==Basic wire diagram==
This is a simple 12 volt circuit. I consists of 12 volts to the solenoid and a ground to complete the circuit.
 
  
When the brakes are applied the relay switches to pin 87 and the circuit is broken, thus unlocking the torque converter. A common Bosch relay used.

==Pressure switches==
 
==Pressure switches==
Notice these pressure switches are silver in color. This means they are NO = Normally Open. When pressure is applied, the switch closes the internal contacts to complete the circuit. All of these pressure switches are of an "on-off" design. Pressure turns them "on", no pressure turns them "off".

The pressure switch with 1 pole is self-grounding. This means the wire you hook to it is going to be grounded when pressure is applied to the switch.

Solenoid on the left has 1 red wire. This is a self-grounding lock up solenoid. The 2-wire solenoid has a red wire and a black wire. Red is for 12 volts, black is for ground.
