About

Nomad LockUp

Features
Read full description

The Nomad Lock-Up app when paired with the Nomad Lock-Up kit from Wholesale Automatic Transmissions provides the most advanced automatic Torque Converter Lock-Up system on the market. Fit the Nomad Lockup kit to your car, pair the module to the app via Bluetooth™, complete the simple setup wizard to select your car and you are good to go. The Nomad Lock-Up kit comes with 5 factory preset automatic lock up calibrations. However, if you are a “Rev-Head” then take control and configure the lockup your way. Change the Calibrations to suit your driving style by setting the speed and throttle that lockup will engage and disengage. Got a “special” car that is beyond what the manufacturer had in mind? No problem, the Vehicle Setup page provides for advanced setup to allow you to adjust the drive ratio, tyre rolling diameter or even calibrate the TPS. The App Dashboard provides a real-time view to assist with troubleshooting, and if your vehicle supports it, you can view and clear the DTC trouble codes from within the app. The Nomad Lock-Up Kit is available from Wholesale Automatic Transmissions at https://nomadlockup.com.au
