dcarguyECU Gone Bad
My transmission control is dead.Had it checked out for conformation it's dead.The fix is to have it rebuilt. There are lots of rebuilders available on the web.The prices range from $3000.00 to $500.00. the low end applies if you have a basic program in your unit.The price goes up with modifications but the process is basically the same. I am going to try Defeo Mfg because it sounds like they know what they are doing And are medium priced.If it goes bad I'll post some negative thoughts.

steveoGreat discussion. My Winnebago with Allison DS3060 touchpad started to flash on and off... ended up being a wiring connection gone bad in the battery box. Wiggled the wires and there you go. Can't tell you how relieved I was to have this be such a simple repair. A new connection and all is perfect again.

Frank StrongI know this post is probably too late to help anyone now but maybe in the future it will help.
I recently repaired my ECU by replacing one capacitor. I found out about this problem on youtube. Just do a search on allison transmission control panel problems and several clips will come up. Look through them and there will be one that shows the detail of breaking open the ECU and finding the problem using a hair dryer. You will need some soldering skill and some knowledge of capacitor values to do the repair but it was pretty simple and saved me several thousand $'s.
