How to service and repair the Transmission Pan and Automatic Transmission Filter on Ford Explorer?

Begin repair of the automatic transmission fluid filter by lifting the vehicle and securely supporting it with a drain pan installed beneath the transmission fluid pan. You should remove the drain plug which leads to draining fluid from the system. The transmission fluid pan gasket possesses reusability but requires cleaning before inspection for any possible damage so long as it shows no signs of brokenage. The service requires removing 16 transmission fluid pan screws and the fluid pan along with its gasket. Remove the transmission fluid filter while discarding it and clean the transmission fluid pan and inspect its magnet. The new transmission fluid filter installation requires sealing the filter with automatic transmission fluid and positioning the filter properly before tightening it to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.). The fluid pan magnet should go into the transmission fluid pan while a reusable gasket should go onto the pan. The transmission fluid pan with gasket needs installation followed by loose screw tightening before crisscross tightening reaches 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.). Place the fluid drain plug onto its location before tightening it to 26 Nm (19 ft. lbs.) while also performing a partial transmission fluid fill.
