3) Ensure fuel tank is at least 1/4 full. If fuel level is
too low, correct fuel level and retest. If fuel level is okay, go to
next step.
4) Ensure transfer case is not in low range. Shift transfer
case out of low range. If transfer case is not in low range, go to
next step.
5) Ensure PTO is not engaged. Disengage PTO. If PTO is not
engaged, go to next step.
6) Ensure transmission fluid temperature is above 32
Warm transmission to normal operating temperature. If transmission
fluid temperature is above 32
7) Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, build a custom display
with engine RPM, output shaft SPD, TCC solenoid, O/D solenoid and
throttle position. Set overdrive to off position. Road test vehicle
and reach a steady speed of 55 MPH with a minimum throttle opening
voltage of 1.15 volts for 20 seconds. Note shift patterns while
vehicle is attaining speed. If engine RPM is within 60 RPM of output
shaft speed RPM, go to next step. If engine RPM is not within 60 RPM
of output shaft speed RPM, go to step 15).
8) If output shaft speed RPM is greater than engine RPM, go
to next step. If output shaft speed RPM is equal to or less than
engine RPM, go to step 15).
9) Road test vehicle and reach a steady speed of 55 MPH and
engage overdrive. If engine RPM is 69 percent of output shaft speed,
go to step 15). If engine RPM is not 69 percent of output shaft speed,
go to next step.
10) Connect a 0-300 psi (0-21 kg/cm
transmission Overdrive (O/D) clutch pressure test port. Connect a
second 0-300 psi (0-21 kg/cm
pressure test port. See appropriate AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OVERHAUL
article. Ensure engine and transmission are at normal operating
temperature. With an assistant, test drive vehicle. Using scan tool,
select GOV and 3-4 SHIFT VALVE SYSTEM TEST. Select 4th gear while
monitoring pressure gauge. Governor pressure should rise to greater
than 20 psi (1.4 kg/cm
£
40 psi (2.8 kg/cm
If pressures are not as specified, go to step 13).
11) Check transmission fluid for proper level and for any
debris. Fill or repair transmission as necessary. If fluid level and
condition are okay, go to next step.
12) Drain transmission fluid and remove oil pan. If
transmission fluid is burnt or has excessive debris, repair as
necessary. If transmission fluid is okay, go to step 23).
13) Check transmission fluid for proper level and for any
debris. Fill or repair transmission as necessary. If fluid level and
condition are okay, go to next step.
14) Leave gauges connected. Replace 3-4 shift solenoid. Start
engine and allow engine and transmission to reach normal operating
temperature. Using scan tool, select GOV and 3-4 SHIFT VALVE SYSTEM
TEST. Select 4th gear while monitoring pressure gauges. Governor
pressure should rise to greater than 20 psi (1.4 kg/cm
pressure should rise to greater than 40 psi (2.8 kg/cm
are as specified, testing is complete. If pressures are not as
specified, see appropriate AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OVERHAUL article,
paying attention to seals and clutches related to O/D clutch.
15) Check transmission fluid for proper level and for any
debris. Fill or repair transmission as necessary. If fluid level and
condition are okay, go to next step.
16) Start engine. Using scan tool, perform TCC SYSTEM TEST.
