Megawatts switch pitch questions

I am not sure if the variable pitch strator is actually changing from high stall to low stall and visa-versa. How can I tell for sure? I checked my CSM but couldn't find anything. The trans shifts up and down nicely and otherwise seems to operates perfectly.

If move the throttle linkage towards WOT with the engine off you will here a click from the trans. I was able to feel it actually shift while driving.

The switch for the converter makes contact at two different parts of the accelerator throw - at small throttle opening and at W.O.T.

If you know where the kick down connector on the drivers side of the 400 towards the back is, with its one electrical pin/blade, then look there, because the switch pitches had a second pin right there.
