  Q: How to service and repair the Transmission Pan, gasket, and filter on Ford F-150 Heritage?

  A:

  The first step for servicing the fluid pan gasket and filter requires placing the vehicle into neutral position and lifting it onto a hoist for work. Release all transmission fluid by opening the pan bolts until all fluid drains out before totally removing the bolts. After removing the transmission fluid pan together with its gasket you need to detach both the transmission fluid filter and seal by pulling down straight. Check the transmission fluid pan for cleanliness before you inspect its gasket together with the magnet. To install a new filter you should carefully remove the main control bore seal using a small screwdriver but keep it undamaged. To treat contamination while repairing the transmission, change both the filter and the sealing system; else reusing the filter is possible when no substantial contamination appears. Place the pan magnet inside the transmission fluid pan before attaching it with the cleaned gasket that has proper damage. The transmission fluid pan needs bolting to attain proper security. To fill a dry transmission system with its converter use a minimum of 4.7 liters (5 quarts) of clean automatic transmission fluid until the transmission fluid reaches its correct level.
