Diagnosis Procedure

1. The Service Advisor opens a Repair Order (R.O.) documenting the customer's detailed comments. A road test by a technician or Service Advisor may be necessary to verify the customer's description.

2. The Service Advisor carefully completes the top section of the ATM Diagnosis Worksheet.

3. The ATM Diagnosis Worksheet (P/N NP150-07006) and shop copy of the R.O. are dispatched to the technician. (The remaining copies of the R.O. can be broken out and distributed according to established dealership procedures.)

4. The technician follows the Diagnostic Flow Chart on the back of the Worksheet to help complete the diagnosis of the ATM and to make a repair/replace decision.

5. If it is determined that a remanufactured unit must be ordered and installed, the technician must obtain the Service Manager's approval and signature on the Worksheet.

6. The technician sends both the Worksheet and the R.O. to the Parts Department.

7. The Parts Department orders a remanufactured ATM from the facing PDC and retains the R.O. and Worksheet, filed by R.O. number.

8. The Parts Department receives a remanufactured ATM, shipped prepaid in a reusable box, and provides the ATM to the technician.

13. Secure the removed torque converter to the removed ATM using the torque converter retaining strap and bolts removed from the remanufactured ATM.
