For what purpose??? It's only supposed to work in 3rd to
increase MPGs. Are you having early lockup issues? like in
1st or 2nd gear? and in answer, yes a switch in the right circuit
would work to control lock up.

If you want to just disable it you could drop the trans pan and just disconnect the lead to it. I went the other way , and bought the parts to fix it! It does help with gas mileage.

You could just unplug the lock up relay.

I am getting the TCC lockup code and don't know when I can change the TCC solenoid.  Can you run it without it working or will it screw up the tranny and/or leave me stranded?

OK, thanks for the answer.  I will probably still try to fix it, but now I can wait until the funds are a little better.
