One test I
thought of last night while trying to get to sleep is to disconnect the
plug on the column and see if the blue wire is grounded .


A word of caution, pretty sure the control for the torque converter
lockup goes to a solenoid in the transmission. So it will show a very
low ohm value that looks like a short circuit to a meter. It should
draw about 0.5 amps when working.

If I recall correctly the wire harness plugs in from the top on the
drivers side of the transmission. Maybe 6-8 inches farther to the rear
from the shifter linkage. Check that it was plugged in correctly and
that cable isn't pinched somewhere going towards the engine...

Big ass picture here showing the cable & connector in white:
