How to Service and Repair the In-Line Automatic Transmission Filter on Ford Ranger?

Install the vehicle on a hoist in neutral position before proceeding with repairs and servicing of the in-line transmission fluid filter. The installation of a new in-line fluid filter becomes necessary when the transmission underwent an overhaul and the vehicle initially included an in-line fluid filter system. In case the vehicle lacks an in-line fluid filter, you should install new in-line fluid filter components. Non-internal repair work requires the elimination of in-line filter and filter kit installation. The in-line transmission fluid filter that comes with a new transmission or a Ford-authorized remanufactured transmission needs to be used for installation. The first step begins with unclipping the retainer elements from the cooler lines followed by removing the lower transmission cooler tube fitting. The technicians must eliminate the return line section before cleaning down the steel tubing cut ends. After placing the ferrule connectors on both tubing ends you should finger tighten them before overtightening the nuts by 1-1/2 turns to fully seat the ferrules. The installation site of the filter requires positioning it within the fluid cooler return line with similar arrows indicating fluid flow moving away from the transmission fluid cooler until they reach the transmission. Installment of rubber hoses and steel tubing must avoid any bending angle higher than 60 degrees from entering the filter. Choose appropriate hose lengths for installation before you tighten the clamping mechanisms. The lower transmission cooler tube fitting should be restored using a torque of 28 Nm (21 lb-ft) before reinstalling the retainer clips on the cooler lines. After cleaning a section of the transmission fluid pan you should place the sticker before proceeding to fill the transmission with clean automatic transmission fluid while verifying proper operation and examining the filter for any indication of leakage. The procedure for vehicles with OTA coolers requires installation of the filter in the fluid cooler return line while following the same basic process which includes pan cleaning and sticker installation prior to filling the transmission and leak inspection.
