   Your transmission MAY also have a temperature switch inside which   
   will prevent lockup on a colt transmission - and if defective COULD   
   prevent lockup - perios. SOME 700R4 traanys ahve the switch, some   
   don't. SOME have the 3/4 switch, some do not. Only way to know is to   
   drop the pan. Also, some have one wire (self grounded) solenoid,   
   others have 2 wire. One wire solenoid USUALLY has external 4th gear   
   pressure switch and will require a relay to enable it or you risk   
   cooking the switch (if it is not a heavy enough switch)

   Look for a DC rating on the switch. DC current is more difficult to break   
   than AC because AC goes to zero between cycles while DC doesn't and can   
   continue to arc like welding, especially with inductance such as a solenoid   
   in the circuit. The same applies to relays, circuit breakers and fuses. A DC   
   voltage rating may be much lower than the AC rating. My lab equipment can   
   test them and several 12V car audio circuit breakers have failed after   
   tripping correctly once.
