PROCEDURE PRIOR TO OPERATIONS: AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
If a gearbox malfunction occurs, there are two possible configurations
depending on the seriousness of the fault:
- Gearbox in back-up mode with a replacement programme of (the fault
values are taken in substitution).
- Gearbox in back-up mode with an emergency programme (3rd hydraulic).
WARNING: In the emergency programme, an impact is felt when
changing P/R or N/R.
Reception of the customer.
Discuss with the customer, to find out all the malfunction symptoms.
Oil quality.
If the gearbox has suffered a serious fault resulting in a malfunction or
the destruction of a clutch, the oil will overheat and become
contaminated with impurities: the oil is said to be «burnt».
This is characterised by a black colour and the presence of an
unpleasant smell.
ESSENTIAL: The gearbox must be replaced.Oil level.
Preliminary conditions:
- Vehicle horizontal, parking brake off.
- Check that the gearbox is not in back-up mode (using a diagnostic tool).
- The oil temperature should be 60°C (+8, -2)(using a diagnostic tool).
- Press on the brake pedal, change through all the gears.
- Place the gear lever in position P.
With the engine running at idle, without power consumers (aircon,
heating, etc.):
- Remove the oil level plug.
The oil should flow out, then drip-drip.
Refit the oil level plug (the oil level is correct).
The oil does not flow out through the oil level plug (see operation: drain
fill - bleed the gearbox).
Engines: ES9A - DT17BTED4

DRAINING, FILLING AND TOPPING UP THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Thread of oil, then "drip-drip".
Refit the level plug (2).
Tighten the plug (2)to: 0.8 ± 0,1 mdaN.
"drip-drip" or nothing.
Refit the level plug (2).
Stop the engine.
Add 0.5 litreof extra oil into the gearbox.
Repeat the topping-up procedure.
NOTE:The level is correct when the thread of oil becomes "drip-drip".
Refit the level plug (2)(with a new seal).
Tighten the plug (2)to: 0.8 ± 0,1 mdaN.
Refit the filler plug (3)(with a new seal).
Tighten the plug (3)to: 4 ± 1 mdaN.
A level of oil that is too high can have the following consequences: Abnormal overheating of the oil, leaks of oil
causing a level which is too low resulting in destruction of the gearbox.
