1
Disconnect batteries. Do not reconnect battery power until system is
fully configured to avoid risk of shock or fire.

Find a location where the transmission temperature can be measured. Examples include a test port on
the transmission, a fitting in a transmission cooler line (possibly using a Tee fitting such as ISSPRO P/N
R7740), or a fitting in the transmission pan (ISSPRO makes a replacement ½”-20 drain plug which
includes a ⅛” NPTF port, R78899).
3
Check the thread size of the port being used. Use included adapter bushings, if required.
Temperature sensor threads are ⅛” NPTF.
Many Emission Control Devices are connected to temperature sensors or switches. Be careful not
to disable these when installing a sensor.
If an adapter bushing is necessary, do not “bottom out” or close the gap when installing sensor into
adapter bushings on units with tapered threads.
4
Thread the sensor into the adapter bushing (if used) finger tight, then thread the sensor into the port
finger tight. Next, tighten with a wrench approximately one half turn. If leakage occurs at the sensor,
tighten one-quarter turn at a time until leakage stops. If necessary, thread sealant such as Teflon tape
may be used.
When using a torque wrench, tighten approximately 20nm/15 lb-in. or slightly more, if leakage
occurs. Do not use the body of the sensor to tighten! Use only the hex and the correct wrench. Do
not over tighten!
5
Connect the temperature sensor to the temperature sensor harness by pressing the connector
into the slot.
