INSTALLATION
NOTE: If the Torque Converter assembly is being
replaced, it is necessary to restart the TCC Break-In
Strategy. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
CONTROL MODULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL
MODULE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
(1) When installing transaxle, reverse the removal
procedure.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the structural col-
lar, hand tighten all fasteners. This will ensure that
the collar is flush against transmission and oil pan
before torquing to specifications.
(2) If the torque converter is being replaced, apply
a light coating of grease to the crankshaft pilot hole.
(3) Inspect the drive plate for cracks before rein-
stalling transaxle. If any cracks are found replace the
drive plate. Do not attempt to repair a cracked drive
plate.
CAUTION: The bolts for the torque converter are a
new short-headed design. Bolts from previous year
vehicles cannot be used.
(4) Always use new torque converter to drive plate
bolts.
NOTE: If the transaxle assembly, PCM, solenoid
pack or clutch plates have been replaced, perform
the Quick Learn Procedure. This program will allow
the transmission control module to compensate for
any parts replaced in the electronic transaxle sys-
tem.
(5) Check and/or adjust gearshift cable.
(6) Refill transaxle with Mopar ATF+4 (Automatic
Transmission Fluid) Type 9602.
