Fluid Drain and Refill
General Procedures
Special Tool(s)
Dipstick
307-379
1. Disconnect the battery ground lead.
2. Raise the vehicle for access.
3. NOTE: This procedure will not re move residual fluid from the
torque converter.
Drain the transmission fluid.
3. WARNING: TRANSMISSION FLUID MAY CAUSE
SEVERE BURNS, ENSURE THAT ALL SAFETY PROCEDURES
ARE OBSERVED AND THAT THE RECEPTACLE FOR WASTE
HAS SUFFICIENT CAPACITY.
Carefully remove the drain pl ug and discard the sealing
washer.
4. Refit the drain plug and tighten to the specified torque figure.
Use a new sealing washer.
5. Connect the PDU to monitor the fluid temperature.
6. Access the dipstick tube.
1. Break off the dipstick tube plug locking plate.
2. Push the locking pin downward, into the plug.
3. Remove the dipstick tube plug.
Push the locking pin through the tube plug and discard the
pin.
