REMOVING THE TRANMISSION VALVE BODY

Important:

When dismantling the valve body, be careful to store all of the parts in a safe place to prevent them

from being lost. It is also very important to keep all the parts clean.

1. Remove the transmission oil from the pan; some transmission pans do not have drain plugs, so the pan will
need to be tipped to the side to drain the oil. You will need to use a 10 mm socket to remove the bolts that attach
the pan to the transmission.

2. Inside the transmission are three valve bodies. The one to be removed is the one farthest forward, it is the
valve body that is highlighted in the photo below. This valve body is held in place by eleven 8mm bolts and two
10mm nuts.

3. Once removed, place the valve body onto a clean work area to remove the valves, it is important that no dirt
or particles get into the valve body.
