Cool Re: 2002 GM cars stalling when hot

Makes sense. The computer only processes data from sensors, then redirects commands to engine controls, plus diagnoses and displays problems. Replacing it is like shooting the messenger for bringing bad news. This car doesn't set a code, but the TCC solenoid is just that-a solenoid,not a sensor. The computer directs it, it doesn't read it. We'll try one and see what happens. The earlier cars used to stick the converter clutch in the applied position,and the effect was like stopping a stick car without depressing the clutch at the stop light.This one doesn't do that. We'll try and see.
