9. Now contact the sensor as described in step #5, right where the wiring harness connects. This will activate the
pump, and it will immediately begin pumping fluid. Once no more fluid comes out, remove the wire from the
sensor.
Note:
Allowing the pump to continue operating when no fluid comes out may cause overheating and
damage of the pump.

10. Completely remove the prepared wire from step #6 and turn off the key switch.
11. Reconnect hose “B” shown in Figure-2.
12. Locate the transmission filter on the right side of the engine compartment (D in Figure-4). Remove by turning it
counterclockwise. Ensure the rubber o-ring is removed alongside the filter, and not stuck to the housing itself.
13. Prepare the new filter by filling it with Type F fluid. Rub fluid around the entire o-ring as well.
14. Install the new filter by turning it clockwise. Tighten firmly, but not with excessive force.

15. Hose “A” as shown in Figure-2 connects directly to the transmission. Remove it at the transmission side as
shown in Figure-5.
16. Use a funnel to fill the transmission with (2) quarts of Type F in the now open hole from step #15.
17. Once filled, reinstall hose “A”.
18. Due to the locations of the filtration hoses, there will still be (1) quart of fluid left inside the transmission that
was not pumped out during earlier steps. The quality of fluid that was pumped into the bucket will dictate the
next steps:
A. Fluid is red in color: The fluid was healthy. You are finished.
B. Fluid is pink, brown or black in color: The fluid was unhealthy. It’s necessary to repeat the Fluid Change Steps,
as mixing in fresh fluid will help push out the unhealthy. Repeat until the fluid is red in color when pumped
out.
