ACDelco will introduce GM Original Equipment Transmission Hydraulic Control Modules (TECHMs), found in all GM six-speed automatic transmissions, at the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) Nov. 5-7 in Las Vegas.

ACDelco GM OE TECHMs cover these families of GM six-speed transmissions in about 7 million 2006-current model year GM cars, trucks and crossovers: 6T30/40/45/50 and 6L45/50/80/90. They integrate electronic and hydraulic components into a single module for optimal driveability and durability.

The ACDelco TECHM is a single-unit module that contains the following: solenoids, pressure switches, connectors and a microprocessor. The new ACDelco GM OE TECHM will be demonstrated in the ACDelco booth No. 4409 during AAPEX.

According to ACDelco, the TECHMs feature these advantages over used and/or competitive products:

• All-new GM OE module for optimized fuel economy.
• Ability to download the latest calibration software for smoother shifts and better customer satisfaction.
• Limited parts warranty of 12 months/12,000 miles.

TECHM replacements in GM six-speed transmissions require Dexron VI transmission oil and additional parts depending on the application, such as seal kits and valve body cover gaskets.

For customers whose GM six-speed automatic TECHM needs reprogramming, ACDelco is making it easier for independent service centers to provide this service by using the ACDelco TIS2Web program and an interface tool to flash the TECHM at their own facility. Distributors, PSC shops and key fleets can purchase the MDI (Multi Diagnostic Interface) by calling 1-800-GMTOOLS or visiting gmdesolutions.com. The MDI part number is No. 7001055G.
