Disassembly

DISASSEMBLY





1. Remove torque converter by holding it firmly and turning while pulling straight out.





2. Check torque converter one-way clutch.
a. Insert Tool into spline of one-way clutch inner race.
b. Hook bearing support unitized with one-way clutch outer race with suitable wire.
c. Check that one-way clutch inner race rotates only clockwise with Tool while holding bearing support with wire.





3. Remove PNP switch from transmission case.





4. Remove oil pan.
a. Drain ATF from drain plug.
b. Raise oil pan by placing wooden blocks under converter housing and rear extension.
c. Separate the oil pan and transmission case.
- Always place oil pan straight down so that foreign particles inside will not move.





5. Place transmission into Tool with the control valve facing up.





6. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine cause of malfunction. If the fluid is very dark, smells burned, or contains foreign particles, the frictional material (clutches, band) may need replacement. A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates varnish build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and clutches to stick and may inhibit pump pressure.
- If frictional material is detected, replace radiator after repair of A/T.





7. Remove torque converter clutch solenoid valve and A/T fluid temperature sensor connectors.
- Be careful not to damage connector.





8. Remove oil strainer.
a. Remove oil strainer from control valve assembly. Then remove O-ring from oil strainer.





b. Check oil strainer screen for damage.





9. Remove control valve assembly.
a. Straighten terminal clips to free terminal cords then remove terminal clips.
