DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Visual Inspection
This inspection will identify modifications or additions to the vehicle operating system that may affect
diagnosis. Inspect the vehicle for non-
Ford factory add-on devices such as:
z electronic add- on items:
„ air conditioning
„ generator (alternator)
„ engine turbo
„ cellular telephone
„ cruise control
„ CB radio
„ linear booster
„ backup alarm signal
„ computer
z Vehicle modification:
These items, if not installed correctly, will affect the powertrain control module (PCM), or transmission
function. Pay particular attention to add- on wiring splices in the PCM harness or transmission wiring
harness, abnormal tire size, or axle ratio changes.
zLeaks; refer to Leak Inspection.
z Correct linkage adjustments; refer to Section 307 - 05 .
Shift Linkage Check
Check for a misadjustment in shift linkage by matching the detents in the transmission range selector
lever with those of the manual lever in the transmission. If they match, the misadjustment is in the
indicator. Do not adjust the shift linkage.
Hydraulic leakage at the manual control valve can cause delay in engagements and/or slipping while
operating if the linkage is not correctly adjusted. Refer to Section 307 - 05 for shift linkage adjustment.
Check TSBs and OASIS
Refer to all technical service bulletins (TSB) and OASIS messages which pertain to the transmission
concern and follow the procedure as described.
Carry Out On- Board Diagnostics (KOEO, KOER)
After a road test, with the vehicle warm and before disconnecting any connectors, carry out the Quick
Test using the scan tool. Refer to the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) manual. SECTION 307-
