(1). Yes – this article does not apply. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 307-02 for normal diagnostics.
(2). No – proceed to Step 2.
- Complete the transmission clutch cooler repair using the attached work instructions.
NOTE: This procedure is considered one that is complex and involves a high level of repair difficulty. For all technical assistance from Multimatic, contact the Ford GT Concierge using the Ford dealer access phone number.
NOTE: A bill of materials (BOM) is attached for the transmission clutch cooler repair kit. Please review the BOM to verify all parts are present before beginning the repair.
- Place the revised Owners Manual addendum card provided in the parts kit into the Owners Manual sleeve and notify the customer.
(1). If the Owners Manual kit is covered in original shipping material, do not remove from packaging. If the Owners Manual is not present, place the addendum card in the storage bag.
