Awesome vid! Can you put the Amazon link in the description?

I would have tested it before bolting everything down.

How about a referral kickback to Ting for every licensed electrician evaluation? Of course, I’m sure there are zero false positive notifications.

Mine used a 19mm and a 18mm

A hammer drill is not the same as an impact driver...u can google

Our Kurtzwell works great for about a minute or two then shuts completely off. Turning off the power and back on again and it works again for a minute or so. The dealer is only interested in selling a new piano. Have you heard of this malfunction and if so can it be an easy fix?

I believe you needed cement not glue

I have a '14 T&W. Planning on doing this myself and have been research how to do it. Out of all the mechanic videos I've watch, yours is the best. Your commentary, and basic information is nice and useful. Thank you so very much for an entertaining and informative video!

Great video, thanks Buddy !!!!

You did a good analysis on the clogged filter scenario. Most people don't realize, that hesitation is the filter holding back the transmissions pump, which is trying to suckup fluid to run with. Chrysler uses silicone gasket maker out of factory. That what I'm also gonna use. Not trusting the cork gasket, and not feeling the rubber one either. Those are T25 torx screw, not allen. I feel anyone who performs this job, should apply gasket silicone (even if using a gasket) to insure a good seal, to prevent leaks.

If the power goes out and I use my portable generator, will it affect the diagnostic?

I went on the AutoZone website to get a transmission filter kit, but on there it said for these 6-speed trannys the manufacturer uses silicone from the factory, not gasket. But you can buy an aftermarket gasket for these.

How do I receive one? Friday 8/9/2024. Fred Kaiser

I got mine yesterday and it's in the 7 day Learning Mode.

This is a great video. I changed the switch, but now when the tires are on the ground (jacked up it works good), there seems to be almost no power steering, and the fluid now leaks from the tube below that the pressure switch line is connected to when it seems that pressure builds up in the line, even after bleeding the line. I used aftermarket power steering fluid (as recommended by an auto zone guy), could it be I need the OEM fluid? Or would that mean the new switch doesn’t work?

you mean all the little nipples?

From the factory it comes with RTV sealant black

With all my Chrysler vehicles I always have disconnected the transmission line and put a low pressure from an air compressor in there you can get almost all the fluid out except for one quart!

I have a 2007 Town Car. When I got it in 2018, all was good, then the battery icon started coming on after about 50 miles. Had my mechanic check battery and alternator, all good. I checked work history and in 2015 the alternator was replaced. One night at dinner, the guy sitting next to me was a mechanic and we struck up a conversation, I told him my problem. He said that they replaced alt with an after market one and that I needed to change it for a Ford alt. Well, I took it to him, he changed out alt and, voila, no more icon coming on!

Where's the magnet 😢 for catching the metal shavings

Great advice from beginning to the end 😂😂

I just picked up a loaded 2011 town and country for $500 sold as is bad trans. Changed the filter and it was good to go.

BIG WARNING - Dodge Grand Caravan SE 2010, 3.3L engine - Although I thank you for this video and for giving me the courage to do this myself, I was mortified at the DIY garage when I realized AFTER dropping the transmission oil pan that my pan + gasket assembly was NOT the same as in your video. Hence, the parts I had ordered did not fit. My pan is about twice the size as the gasket ordered and the filter is made of metal and snaps on without screws. I was extremely lucky that the DIY garage had a deal with a local parts store who delivered the right parts, because if not, I would've been in serious trouble.

Thanks. Curious about your symptom. I know you had the compressor stopping and starting. Did you notice if your fan controls stopped working also? I have a 1999 town car and my AC is intermittent. Starts out OK when, then stops blowing. I started car up the next day repeat. I'm not sure if the blowing is tied to the compressor wiring or independent. Great Vid. Will try this and see if helps, but curious about the blower.

Also take out the oil dipstick and use the opposite side of stick and mark cold at 10mm and hot at 40mm. You can then use that for checking transmission fluid level.

Silicone on these means it was factory.

I replaced pan with one with drain bolt. 40 $ ~ then new filter. Cleaned magnet. Measured how much fluid came out and put back in same amount of mopar brand fluid. Around 65k miles. Oh mine is 2015 grand caravan. Then 2yrs/20k miles later, drained and refilled. 90k now and so far no issues.

Little recommendation for the replacement ATF, measure what you removed. And replace an equal amount. Can't go wrong there. For an added piece of mind, have a shop check the level for you afterward, just in case the filter absorbs a certain amount that's unaccounted for.

good info but very bad camera work

This is encouraging me (68 year old female) to give it a try! Fixed income and all... What a blessing!

Great video great knowledge.📡🇺🇸👽

I noticed that Amazon, Home Depot, Lowe's, Walmart etc... do not sell this product. Nobody but Ting sells it. If it's such a great idea, you would think that all these other sources that sell similar items would have Ting available! Strange....

What a great video ty

9:14

I am just wondering if I get this, install it and it notices an issue that I do not repair can or will they drop me or deny any future claims?

Great job! The only concern I have is there is no magnet in the bottom of that pan. Most Dodge/Chrysler transmissions that are in those Caravans have a circular magnet in the lower side of the pan by the little dimple. I'm wondering if the previous owner changed the filter and took that magnet out and didn't put it back. I'm not entirely sure its needed, just curious not seeing one in there.

Great vid

Great video!

Thank you for this great video I'ma do It my self it looks easy 💪

Thank you for the Video brother, I will try this on my 2013 Chrysler Town and Country. it has a leak that seems to be in the same area, the seals look pretty bad on,

Mechanics trying to rob me 😮😮😮 Mechanics are so full of 💩 My dodge grand caravan go into reverse slow and it drives sluggish fluid is jet black

Nice video! Thanks

Best video on this, but I would disconnect the negative cable on the battery. I'm going to do mine but just replace the voltage regulator as it's less than $20. If there's no noise in the bearings. We'll see if all the planets are in alignment.

Will the pressure switch make it hard to steer if it's bad an leaking

Every mechanic shop are no longer about the customer but about how they can rip you off some way, some how. This is why they lose customers by the minute, they still have enough poor souls out there who got no choice but to trust them, like women or elderly or the guy who does not know anything mechanical or do not want to get his hands dirty, so thanks to tutorials like this one there is hope. I am in the start part of process of rebuilding our 2015 Town and Country after my daughter hydro locked engine in a local storm last summer, Mopar lifetime warranty and progressive insurance full cover denied coverage after dealer quote the repair close to 12K, that engine was actually replaced already once when the car had 59000 miles due to a spun bearing, costed me $100.00 at the time, now this time around they just wont cover it, my daughter did not drove intentionally through water, she was caught in a flood so they all told me to total the car, I smiled and replied "sure" that is how I am taking it apart and doing it myself, not my first rodeo rebuilding an engine, my second one so why not? When you say " you can fix that" that is absolutely right!

As a retired keyboard technician, I can say you are far better off to just replace all of those rubber contacts. If you don't you can run into problems like keys double striking or keys not having their touch sensitivity working correctly.

Drain this twice or 3 times to get all old fluid out

Great tutorial ..

This was a great tutorial. The only thing i would add is that when you first start the vehicle up after the fluid has been added, you should run the transmission selector in the car through all the gears slowly, stopping at each gear for acouple seconds. You need to give the new fluid time to fill all the appropriate chambers/selinoids before backing it off the ramps. That's why you had that hissing sounds that eventually went away.

Thanks for the video. Do you both still have the vans or did the trannies blow? 🙂 I want to do the same.
