1. NOTE: All gasoline vehicles will have new adaptive shift strategies. Whenever the vehicle's battery has been disconnected for any type of service
or repair, the strategy parameters stored in the Keep Alive Memory (KAM) will be lost. The strategy will start to relearn once the battery is
reconnected and the vehicle is driven. This is a temporary condition and will return to normal operating condition once the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) relearns all the parameters from the driving conditions. There is no set time frame for this process. If a concern is present during
downshifts or converter clutch apply, it is not the fault of the shift strategy and will require diagnosis.
The customer needs to be notified that slightly different upshifts (either soft or firm) may be experienced and that this is a temporary condition and
will eventually return to normal operating condition.
Disconnect the battery ground cable.
2. Raise the vehicle on a hoist.
3. Remove the nuts.
4. Install the high-lift transmission jack with the special tool to the transmission.
