CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL

On-Vehicle Removal

Warning

• A hot transmission and ATF can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until they are cool before replacing ATF.

• Using compressed air can cause dirt and other particles to fly out, causing injury to the eyes. Wear protective eye wear whenever using compressed air.

Caution

• Clean the transmission exterior thoroughly with a stream cleaner or cleaning solvents before removal.

• If any old sealant gets into the transmission during installation of the oil pan, trouble may occur in the transmission case and oil pan. Clean with cleaning fluids.
