A throttle position sensor (TPS) is required for any transmission controller to work properly (see more information below). There are several options available. If your Cummins has a sensor on it already this works the best. All 98.5 and newer engines will have one. Earlier engines may have one if the engine was in a Dodge pickup with an automatic transmission originally. Instructions will be included with your controller that will direct you on how to do the wiring.

If your truck is equipped with a 5R110 automatic transmission please see below for more information and other options.

DCS does not included a tuning package with a Quick 4 module.  A laptop computer is NOT necessary but it does streamline the tuning process.  You can download the software at US Shift's website.  The download contains numerous "pre-set" tunes.  The Shiftware software is easy to use so we recommend you take a look at tuning the transmission yourself.  If you don't want to do the tuning or don't feel comfortable please let us know.  We charge a very reasonable fee for tuning assistance.

Ford 5R110

Currently there are no aftermarket transmission control modules available (09/01/2016).  This may change in the future but these are not "user friendly" as a transmission swap at any rate.  We currently offer transmission tuning for the 6.0L & 6.4L diesel trucks for what we call Stock Tuning.  Click HERE for more information.

Throttle Position Sensor Options

1989-1993 12 Valve Cummins with Bosch VE rotary injection pump

If you are installing this engine into a 1967-2002 Ford, or a Chevy, we have made a bracket SKU (3124) that allows you to install the Dodge Cummins tps from a 1994-1998 onto the VE pump. We also have the senor and pigtail adapter available. This is a great reliable way to get your tps signal to you transmission controller.

1994-1998 12 Valve Cummins with Bosch P-7100 inline injection pump

If you are installing this engine into a 1967-2002 Ford, or a Chevy, the best tps option for you is the Dodge Cummins tps (as long as you have the Dodge Cummins throttle linkage- industrial versions of this engine do not have this linkage).
 


1998.5-Present 24 Valve Cummins
These engine always have a tps, and you can share the tps signal with the transmission controller according to our wiring instructions.
