At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
1. Identify and interpret transmission/transaxle concern, assure proper engine operation, and determine necessary action.
2. Diagnose unusual fluid usage, level, and condition concerns, and determine necessary action.
3. Perform pressure and stall tests and determine necessary action.
4. Perform lock up converter system tests and determine necessary action.
5. Diagnose electronic, mechanical, hydraulic, vacuum control system concerns, and determine necessary action.
6. Diagnose transmission/transaxle gear reduction/multiplication concerns using driving, driven, and held member (power flow) principles.
7. Inspect, adjust or replace throttle linkages or cables, and check gear select indicator (as applicable).
8. Service transmission/transaxle, perform visual inspection; and replace fluids and filters.
9. Inspect and replace external seals and gaskets.
10. Inspect, leak test, flush, and replace cooler, lines, and fittings.
11. Diagnose electronic transmission control systems using the appropriate tool; determine necessary action.
12. Disassemble, clean, and inspect transmission/transaxle and reassemble.
13. Check torque converter and transmission cooling system for contamination.
14. Inspect, measure, and reseal oil pump assembly and components.
15. Measure endplay or preload and determine necessary action.
16. Inspect, measure, and replace thrust washers, bearings and bushings.
17. Inspect oil delivery seal rings, ring grooves, and sealing surface areas, roller and sprag clutch, races, rollers, sprags, springs, cages, and retainers, and determine necessary action.
18. Inspect and measure planetary gear assembly, case bores, passages, bushings, vents, and mating surfaces and determine necessary action.
19. Inspect transaxle drive, link chains, sprockets, gears, bearings, and bushings, and perform necessary action.
20. Inspect, measure, repair, adjust or replace transaxle final drive components.
21. Inspect clutch drum, piston, check balls, springs, retainers, seals, and friction and pressure plates, and replace as needed.
22. Measure clutch pack clearance and adjust as needed.
