8HP75 - Disassembly
DISASSEMBLY
The Transmission Control Module (TCM), or Transmission Control Module Assembly (TCMA) is extremely sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Always use a ground strap and follow the ESD guidelines in ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE SENSITIVE DEVICES. Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to the TCM/TCMA.
If the transmission is being reconditioned (clutch/seal replacement) or replaced, it is necessary to perform the TCM Adaptation Procedure. Refer to MODULE, TRANSMISSION CONTROL (TCM), MODULE PROGRAMMING .
Tag all clutch pack assemblies as they are removed, for reassembly identification.
