Turning the OD off for the first few minutes has no effect on the speed that the trans oil heats up - The computer has already locked-out the overdrive gears, and prevented the torque converter from locking until the fluid warms up.


My OD has never been locked out. That's at 10 F. My engine does heat more quickly when I manually lock out the OD. I strongly suspect the trans heats more quickly also, although that doesn't seem to be an issue.

I was thinking more about a stick on Titan heater stick it on the bottom of my trans pan or should i stick to to the side of the trans? Also does anyone know how these stick on heaters are wired do i have to wire them into my electrical system or do they already come complete just run the plug in cord?
