Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program involves vehicles that exhibit a slipping or loss of forward gear condition caused by a fractured forward clutch cylinder. Repair services
include performing specified diagnostics, and if necessary, replacing the transmission with a replacement unit. Transmission disassembly and overhaul
are not covered under this program.
Other service procedures that must be performed when replacing the transmission include replacement of the oil-to-air (OTA) cooler and flushing the
transmission cooler lines. Please note that the 2005 Workshop Repair Manual refers to the OTA cooler as the Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Cooler, and
that in the 2006 models, the OTA cooler is integral to the A/C condenser. On 2006 vehicles, the condenser must be replaced.
A Repair Flow Chart has been provided to make sure the repairs are performed in the proper order. Diagnostics are provided in this Attachment III.
Refer to the Crown Victoria Workshop Repair Manual found on the PTS website for removal and installation procedures.
NOTE:
In an effort to save time, plug in the Rotunda Deluxe Turbo Tank Heated Flusher (222-00004) and turn on the heater well in advance of needing to
flush the cooling system. The flusher takes up to one hour to heat to operating temperature.
[NEW!] NOTE!
Vehicles affected by Extended Coverage Program 06N06 were also affected by Customer Satisfaction Program 06B36. Program 06B36 has
expired and the necessary recalibration is now performed as part of labor operation 06N06A.
