I would try a dealer like Suncoast (google them) or a local dealer. Looks like you may have found the problem.

does any one know where the brown wire in the lower left hand corner connects to?

Have you checked online for the wiring info? Good luck, I'll be following..

Apparently the wire is not used.

Does anyone have that bit of a lag or faux shift while in 2nd under mild acceleration ? I had my trans serviced and it`s fine. It doesn`t do it under high rpm.

Mine used to do that very occasionally. Remember the ECU for the Tip has fuzzy logic and will shift according to the way you drive the car in "D." It is the reason I don't drive in "D" anymore and use "M" so I can shift when and how I want.

Yes, I would get some oddness like that while puttering about town. I too have started driving almost exclusively in M mode. Since that is the way that I use it at the track, I figured I should get used to driving it this way. Now if I put it in D mode, I find it's logic quite annoying!

I should have wrote that it happens in M. I know I should drive it in Auto every so but ...
