Transmission Identification

Example - arrow -:






GKF - Transmission code

10.05.2 - May 10, 2002

14 - Plant code

14 15 - Time

001 - serial number

On some transmissions, additional code letters are applied at the top of the transmission in the vicinity of the selector lever cable - arrows -.






The transmission code is also listed on the vehicle data plate.

If the vehicle data plate is not available, a different transmission was accidentally installed or there is no definite way to identify the installed transmission, read the transmission code letters directly from the transmission.

Read the code directly off the transmission. Refer to => [ Transmission Code Letter, Reading ].

Transmission Code Letter, Reading

The transmission code letters are on the transmission at least in two different locations.

On the transmission near the selector lever cable - arrows -.






If these cannot be read or are on the head, the transmission code letters can also be read under the transmission mount bracket.

To read the transmission code letters under the bracket directly from the transmission, the engine and transmission must be supported. The transmission mount bracket - A - must be removed. Lower the engine and transmission just enough until it is possible to slide the bracket toward the rear. If lowered further, the pendulum support could be damaged. After being reassembled, the selector lever cable must be adjusted. Refer to => [ Selector Lever Cable, Adjusting ] Adjustments.






Perform the following work:

- Remove the air filter housing.

- Remove the battery, the battery tray bolts - arrows - and tray.






Install the engine support bridge (10-222 A) and support the engine and transmission. Do not lift it up yet.

- Remove the transmission mount to bracket bolts - 2 - and the transmission mount bracket - A - to transmission bolt - 2 -.






The bolts must be replaced.

- Then, lower the engine and transmission slightly using the engine support bridge (10-222 A) spindles until the bracket can be removed.

In most cases, 2 turns on the spindle are enough to remove the bracket - arrow -.






After reading the transmission code letters, reassemble in reverse order of removal.

- Follow all instructions.

- Replace all the bolts for the transmission mount and bracket.

- First, install all new bolts by hand.

- Install the bracket - A - to the transmission using the bolts - 1 -. Refer to => [ Transmission, Installing ] Transmission, Installing.

- Install the transmission mount to transmission mount bracket bolts - 2 -. Refer to => [ Transmission, Installing ] Transmission, Installing.






- After installing the transmission mount bracket, always adjust the selector lever cable. Refer to => [ Selector Lever Cable, Adjusting ] Adjustments.
