Transmission Final Test and Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
Complete the following procedure after the transmission is installed in the vehicle:
- With the ignition OFF or disconnected, crank the engine several times. Listen for any unusual noises or evidence that any parts are binding.
- Place transmission in neutral, start the engine and listen for any unusual noises or evidence that any parts are binding.
- While the engine continues to idle raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle .
- Perform a final inspection for the proper fluid level. Refer to Transmission Fluid Checking .
- Lower the vehicle.
- Reset the TAP values. Refer to Transmission Adaptive Functions .
- Road test the vehicle.
IMPORTANT:
It is recommended that transmission adaptive pressure (TAP) information be reset.
Resetting the TAP values using a scan tool will erase all learned values in all cells. As a result, The ECM, PCM or TCM will need to relearn TAP values. Transmission performance may be affected as new TAP values are learned.
