Basic Knowledge

Notice: Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to diagnose a powertrain problem without basic knowledge of this powertrain. If you perform diagnostic procedures without this basic knowledge, you may incorrectly diagnose the problem or damage the powertrain components.

You must be familiar with some basic electronics. You should also be able to use the following special roofs:
^ A Digital Volt Meter (DVM)
^ A circuit tester
^ Jumper wires or leads
^ A Line Pressure gage set

The Functional Test Procedures verify the correct operation of electronic components in the transmission. These procedures will eliminate the unnecessary removal of transmission components.
