An OHM meter revealed that several of these grounds had over 20 ohms of resistance. Most of the body grounds we checked were green and corroded, and in poor functioning condition. It was also noted that this truck looked as though it has seen several bad winters of road salt, as the undercarriage showed extensive rust and corrosion.Īs the inspection progressed, we found a body ground that literally fell apart in our hands as we were inspecting them. We found several grounds that looked extremely corroded, and they were green in color. We then decided to check the body and chassis grounds. We decided to clean the battery terminals as a precautionary measure. We checked the charging system, load tested the battery and alternator, and everything passed inspection.

Next, a full inspection of the cooling system took place we wanted to make sure there were no cooler flow problems, so a flow test was performed and everything there passed testing.įinally, we decided to perform a full diagnosis of the electrical system. We took this truck on an extensive drive, and it performed and shifted perfectly. There were no codes stored or pending, so a road test followed. An appointment was made, and the truck returned a few days later. This isn’t that uncommon about 30% of the core transmissions we get come in with signs of pump plate etching.Īfter this discovery, a phone call was placed to the owner of the truck to inform him that we needed to get his truck back in to the shop to check a few things out, so a future failure could be avoided. Further inspection revealed that the pump plate showed signs of etching. After the transmission was disassembled, it was found that the inner pump gear was broken and welded to the pump plate, but all other components of the transmission were in great shape. When this unit was returned to the factory, a complete teardown and inspection took place. It was determined that there was a problem with the pump, so we elected to replace the transmission under warranty. We again verified that the truck had no forward or reverse gears. We got it into the shop right away and began the diagnostic process to find the source of the problem.Ī scan of the computer showed no codes and a fluid check showed the fluid was clean, but overfilled. Several months later, this truck was returned to our shop on a flat bed, and when we attempted to drive it, the vehicle would not move in either forward or reverse. When this truck came back for the 15 day follow-up, everything was working great and the customer was pleased with the job.

The transmission was replaced with our remanufactured unit, the vehicle software calibration was updated, fluid level was verified, and the relearn procedure was performed.Īfter a road test and a recheck, the truck was delivered to the customer with a 15 day follow-up recommendation, which is our standard protocol after an installation to ensure that there are no leaks or problems that could lead to future issues for the customer. The decision was made to go with a remanufactured unit in lieu of repairing the customer’s unit, since the customer was in a hurry to get the truck back on the road because it was a commercial truck. This truck came into our shop diagnosed with an internal problem that required it to be removed and repaired.
