DISASSEMBLY
NOTE:
If the transmission is being reconditioned (clutch/seal replacement) or replaced, it is necessary to perform the Quick Learn Procedure using the DRBIII Scan Tool
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
Before disassembling transmission, move the shift lever clockwise as far as it will go and then remove the shift lever.
NOTE:
Tag all clutch pack assemblies, as they are removed, for reassembly identification.
CAUTION:
Do not intermix clutch discs or plates as the unit might then fail.
