DATE INSPECTION
1. Inspect the date on the transmission warmer. The affected transmission warmers were built between April 28, 2015
(2015-04-28) and July 15, 2015 (2015-07-15).
•
•

If the build date is within the date range, go to ATF WARMER INSPECTION.
If the build date is before or after the date range, go to step 2.

2. Check the client responses on the RO to see if the vehicle overheated.
•
•

If the vehicle did not overheat, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE A.
If the vehicle did overheat, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE B.

Page 29 of 78

ATF WARMER INSPECTION
1. Raise the vehicle on a lift.
2. Remove the splash shield. Refer to the service information.
3. Remove the air cleaner. Refer to the service information.
4. Remove the intake air guide. Refer to the service information.
5. Remove the 12-volt battery. Refer to the service information.
6. Remove the battery box. Refer to the service information.
7. Remove the connector bracket. Refer to the service information.
8. Using commercially-available clamps, pinch off the coolant hoses.

9. Remove the coolant hoses from the transmission warmer.

10. Clean the connection points around the transmission fluid warmer pipes.
•

If the vehicle is equipped with an accessory external cooler, go to step 11.

•

If the vehicle is NOT equipped with an accessory external cooler, go to step 12.
Page 30 of 78

11. Detach the accessory transmission cooler hoses.
•

Remove the bolt and the bracket.

•

Push the retaining clip out, and detach the external accessory cooler lines.

Page 31 of 78

12. Remove the 3 hold down bolts and 2 fixing plate bolts to remove the transmission warmer. Place the warmer on a
clean surface.

13. Prepare the transmission warmer to check for leaks.
•
•
•
•

Remove the original ATF lines from the warmer.
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the lines as you may reuse them.
Install the pressure check tool as shown with the fixing plates, and torque the bolts to 10 N·m (7 lb-ft).
Fill a bucket with warm water.
Connect shop air to pressurize the warmer, and adjust the pressure check tool to 70 psi.

Page 32 of 78

14. Check the transmission warmer for leaks by submerging the warmer completely under the water and watching for
bubbles.

•
•

NOTE: Some bubbles are normal when the transmission warmer is first submerged and will come to a stop.
If there is a leak, there will be a steady stream of bubbles coming from the transmission warmer.
If there are no bubbles coming from the warmer, continue with the warmer replacement. Go to step 15.
If there are bubbles, take photos (see Photos) and check to see if the vehicle also overheated by checking the
client responses on the RO.
- If the transmission warmer leaks but the engine did not overheat, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE C.
- If the transmission warmer leaks and the engine overheated, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE D.

Photos
If there are bubbles because of a leaking transmission warmer, take photos of the bubbles during the
pressure test, the transmission warmer serial number, and the VIN.
• The pressure test

•

The transmission warmer serial number

•

VIN

NOTE:
• These photos must be submitted with any warranty claim where the transmission is replaced.
• Make sure you install the leaking transmission warmer on the original transmission to be returned to the
remanufacturing facility. Any transmission replacement claims that do not have the leaking warmer installed
on the returned transmission may be subject to debit.
• Any transmission replacement claims that do not include the required photos may be subject to debit.
Unacceptable Photos
Photos must correspond to the warranty claim submittal standards. Photos may be rejected for the following
reasons:
• Out of focus and unreadable
• Too small of a file size
• Too dark
Page 34 of 78

15. Remove the 8 O-rings on the pipes by gently pushing the O-rings off with your fingers.
• If the vehicle is equipped with an external cooler, go to step 16.
• If the vehicle is not equipped with an external cooler, go to step 17.
NOTE:
- Do not use picks or screwdrivers to remove the O-rings as you may damage the sealing surface.

Page 35 of 78

16. Remove the Jiffy-Tite fittings.
•
•
•
•
•

Remove the fitting by using two 19 mm wrenches. Use one wrench to hold the ATF tube, and remove the fitting
with the other.
Clean the pipes.
NOTE: Make sure your hands are clean or wear gloves to avoid contaminating the Jiffy-Tite fitting.
Install the Jiffy-Tite fitting, and torque it to 22 N·m (16 lb-ft).
Remove the sealing caps by twisting ¼ turn to the right.
The Jiffy-Tite fitting is a one-time use only.

17. Clean the pipes, then install four new O-rings.
NOTE: Make sure your hands or gloves are clean to avoid contaminating the O-rings.
18. Coat the O-rings with ATF 3.1.

Page 36 of 78

19. Install the original ATF warmer pipes onto the new transmission warmer using the fixing plates.
Torque the bolts to 10 N·m (7 lb-ft).

20. Install the new transmission warmer to the transmission. Install the ATF warmer pipes using fixing plates. Torque
the bolts to 10 N·m (7 lb-ft).

21. Check to see if the vehicle also overheated by checking the client responses on the RO.
•
•
•

If the engine did not overheat and has an accessory external ATF cooler, go to step 22.
If the engine did not overheat and does not have an external ATF cooler, go to step 23.
If the engine overheated, go to REPAIR PROCEDURE B.

22. Install hose A to line A and hose B to line B as shown.

23. Install the connector bracket.
24. Go to REPAIR PROCEDURE A.

Page 38 of 78

REPAIR PROCEDURE A
NOTE:
• Use this procedure only if the engine did not overheat. If the engine overheated, go to REPAIR
PROCEDURE B.
