2.
Raise the vehicle for access to the transmission housing. The by-pass assembly will be connected to the existing transmission lines and mounted to
the transmission housing by means of a by-pass adapter (Figures 1 & 2).
3.
During this installation procedure, some transmission fluid will be lost when the transmission cooler lines are cut (allowing by-pass assembly
installation). Take proper precautions and recheck transmission fluid fill level upon completing the installation.
4.
If the cold weather by-pass kit has provision for an in-line temperature sensor, the threaded "thermal well" (in the pressure "P" line of the kit) must
be plugged with either the temperature sensor from the existing transmission line or the standard pipe plug provided. Consequently, if the vehicle
being serviced is equipped with a temperature sensor (i.e., heavy duty BR truck), remove the temperature sensor from the existing line by
unthreading and install it in the "pressure" line provided with the kit. Use Mopar Thread Sealant, P/N 4318044, to ensure a leak free seal.
5.
Disconnect the pressure and return lines from the transmission housing quick connect fittings.
6.
Remove and discard the quick connect fittings from the transmission housing.
7.
Apply Mopar Thread Sealant, P/N 4318044, to the threaded by-pass adapter (See Figure 1 to identify the by-pass adapter).
