IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION


IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to be completely familiar with the warnings and cautions in this manual.
These warnings and cautions advise of specic methods or actions that can result in personal injury,
equipment damage, or cause the equipment to become unsafe. These warnings and cautions are not
exhaustive. Allison Transmission could not possibly know, evaluate, or advise the service trade of all
conceivable procedures by which service might be performed or of the possible hazardous consequences
of each procedure. Consequently, Allison Transmission has not undertaken any such broad evaluation.
Accordingly, ANYONE WHO USES A SERVICE PROCEDURE OR TOOL WHICH IS NOT RECOMMENDED
BY ALLISON TRANSMISSION MUST rst be thoroughly satised that neither personal safety nor equipment
safety will be jeopardized by the service methods used.
Proper service and repair is important to the safe and reliable operation of the equipment. The service
procedures recommended by Allison Transmission (or the vehicle manufacturer) and described in this
manual are effective methods for performing service and diagnostic operations. Some procedures require
using specially designed tools. Use special tools when and in the manner recommended.
The WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, and NOTES in this manual apply only to the Allison transmission and not
to other vehicle systems which may interact with the transmission. Be sure to review and observe any
vehicle system information provided by the vehicle manufacturer and/or body builder at all times the Allison
transmission is being serviced.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, NOTES


Three types of headings are used in this manual to attract your attention:
WARNING: A warning is used when an operating procedure, practice, etc., which, if not correctly
followed, could result in personal injury or loss of life.

CAUTION: A caution is used when an operating procedure, practice, etc., which, if not strictly
observed, could result in damage to or destruction of equipment.

NOTE: A note is used when an operating procedure, practice, etc., is essential to highlight.

LIST OF WARNINGS
This manual contains the following warnings
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BE FAMILIAR WITH ALL OF THEM.

To help prevent personal injury or property damage caused by sudden and unexpected
vehicle movement, do not check the uid until you:
Put the transmission in N (Neutral)and
Apply the parking brake and emergency brakes and make sure they are properly
engagedand
Chock the wheels and take any other steps necessary to keep the vehicle from
moving.
Avoid contact with the hot uid or the sump when draining transmission uid. Direct
contact with the hot uid or the hot sump may result in bodily injury.
To help avoid personal injury, such as burns, from hot transmission uid and/or to help
avoid equipment damage, do not stall the torque converter for more than ten seconds
maximum and monitor transmission uid temperature. Immediately return the engine
to idle if converter out (to cooler) temperature exceeds 150C (300F). Operating the
transmission at high engine power at transmission stall or near stall conditions causes
a rapid rise in the transmission uid temperature. The uid in the transmission torque
converter is absorbing all of the engine power and the vehicle cooling system cannot
dissipate the excessive heat load. Extended operation under high heat load conditions
causes transmission and cooling system damage, and can possibly fail hydraulic lines
causing leaking high temperature uid.
To help avoid personal injury and equipment damage while conducting a transmission
stall test, the vehicle must be positively prevented from moving. Apply the parking
brake, the service brake, and chock the wheels securely. Warn personnel to keep
clear of the vehicle and its travel path.
To help avoid personal injury and/or equipment damage, a driving transmission stall
test must be performed by a trained driver and a qualied technician.
Use appropriate safety equipment such as safety glasses, safety shoes, and gloves.
Do not burn discarded Teon seals toxic gases are produced by burning Teon.
Never dry bearings by spinning them with compressed air. A spinning bearing can
disintegrate, allowing balls or rollers to become lethal ying projectiles. Also, spinning
a bearing without lubrication can damage the bearing.
Avoid contact with the hot uid or the sump when draining transmission uid. Direct
contact with the hot uid or the hot sump may result in bodily injury.

its previous position.
3. Wait until timeout (approximately 2 minutes).
The systems automatically return to the
normal operating mode.
4. Turn off the vehicle engine with the ignition
switch, which turns power off to the TCM.

18.

PRESERVATION AND STORAGE

a. Preservation Methods. When the transmission


is stored or inactive for an extended period (one
or more years), specic preservation methods are
required to prevent damage from rust, corrosion,
and organic growth in the transmission uid.
Preservation methods described are for storage
with or without transmission uid. The methods are
the same whether a transmission is in or out of a
vehicle.
b. Storage (New Transmissions, Before
Installation). New transmissions are lled with
transmission uid and drained before shipment. The
residual uid in the transmission provides adequate
protection to safely store the transmission for one
full year without further treatment if stored indoors,
in conditions of normal climate, and with all shipping
plugs installed.
c. One Year Storage (Without Fluid).
1. Drain the uid.
2. Remove the breather and spray 30 ml (one
ounce) of VCI #10 (or equivalent) into the
transmission through the breather hole.

Copyright 2009 Allison Transmission, Inc.

111

SERVICE MANUAL3000 Product FamilyAllison 4th Generation


ControlsVOCATIONAL MODELS
Reinstall breather. Also, spray 30 ml (one
ounce) through the ll tube hole.
3. Seal all openings and the breather with
moistureproof tape.
4. Coat all exposed, unpainted surfaces with
preservative grease such as petrolatum
(MILC 11796, Class 2).

8. Coat all exposed, unpainted surfaces with


preservative grease such as petrolatum
(MILC 11796), Class 2.
9. If additional storage time is required, repeat
Steps 2 through 8 at yearly intervals, except,
it is not necessary to drain the transmission
each year. Just add VCI #10 and Biobor JF
(or equivalent).

5. If additional storage time is required, repeat


Steps 3 and 4 at yearly intervals.
d. One Year Storage (With Fluid).
1. Drain the uid and replace the oil lter
elements
2. Fill the transmission to operating level with a
mixture of one part VCI #10 (or equivalent)
to 30 parts transmission uid. Add 3 ml
(1/4 teaspoon per gallon) of Biobor JF (or
equivalent) per 3 ml (1/4 teaspoon per gallon)
of uid in the system.
NOTE: When calculating the amount of
Biobor JF required, use the total volume of
the system, not just the quantity required to
ll the transmission. Include external lines,
lters, and the cooler.
3. Operate the transmission for approximately
ve minutes at 1500 rpm with the transmission
in neutral.
4. Make sure the transmission shifts through all
ranges and the lockup clutch is also activated.
5. Continue operating the transmission in
neutral at 1500 rpm until normal operating
temperature is reached.
6. If normal operating temperature is less than
107C (225F), shift the transmission to
forward range and stall the converter. Do not
exceed 107C (225F).
NOTE: If the unit does not have a
converterout temperature gauge, do not
stall the converter.
7. As soon as the transmission is cool enough to
touch, seal all openings and the breather with
moistureproof tape.

112

19.

RESTORING TRANSMISSION TO
SERVICE
CAUTION: Whenever a transmission is
overhauled, exchanged, or has undergone
repairs, the Transmission Control Valve
Module (TCM) must be RESET TO
UNADAPTED SHIFTS. This will cause the
TCM to erase previous adaptive information
and begin to adapt in Fast Adaptive Mode
from the base calibration. Use the Allison
DOC For PCService Tool (refer to the
Allison DOC Users Guide GN3433EN for
instructions) to RESET TO UNADAPTED
SHIFTS.

a. Transmission Exterior. Wash all external


grease from the transmission with mineral spirits.
b. Sealed Breather and Openings. Remove all
tape from openings and the breather.
c. New Transmissions. If the transmission is
new, drain the residual preservative uid. Rell
the transmission to the proper level with an Allison
approved transmission uid.
d. Stored Without Fluid. If the transmission was
prepared for storage without uid, drain the residual
uid and replace the oil lter elements. Rell the
transmission to the proper level with an Allison
approved transmission uid.
e. Stored With Fluid. If the transmission was
prepared for storage with uid, it is not necessary
to drain and rell the transmission with new
transmission uid. Check for proper uid level. Add
or drain transmission uid, as required, to obtain
the proper level.

ELECTROMAGNETIC/RADIO
FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE

All electrical and electronic systems generate


electromagnetic elds that can interfere with
other electronic systems. Allison Transmissions
electronic transmission controls comply with Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) regulations
and other guidelines concerning emitted radio
frequency interference for transportation electronics.
Some radiotelephone or twoway communications
radios (landmobile radio), or the manner in which
they are installed, can be affected by other vehicle
components or adversely affect vehicle operation.
Manufacturers and installers of Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI)/Radio Frequency Interference
(RFI) emitting equipment are responsible for
adhering to FCC regulations and other guidelines
concerning emitted radio frequency interference for
transportation electronics. Radio or other twoway
communication antenna, power, or ground leads
near the transmission wiring harness, control
devices, or power leads may create or be subject
to EMI. Refer to the latest revision of Allison 4th

SECTION 2PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE


21.

SCOPE

Proper care and regular maintenance enables


the transmission to meet its duty requirements.
Perform the maintenance procedures described in
this section on a regular basis to prevent premature
transmission or support equipment failure. Allison
transmissions are manufactured to provide long
term, efcient service in their designed applications.

22.

b. Filter Life Monitor. Filter deterioration is


sensed by a differential pressure switch (PS2)
located in the control valve module. The pressure
difference between ltered lockup pressure and
unltered main pressure is compared to a calibrated
value. If the TCM determines the lter has
deteriorated, the prognostic service indicator icon
displays on the shift selector.
Calendar based lter change requirements still
apply and are not incorporated into prognostics.
Refer to the most current version of SIL 10TR99.

Prognostics

Model Year 09 transmissions (MY09 begins with


S/N 6510822005, 6520099957) are equipped
with a prognostics systemcomprised of control
valve module hardware, the shift selector, the
Transmission Control Module (TCM) conguration
and the calibrationdesigned to monitor uid life,
uid lter life, and clutch life. Prognostics may be
used only if a TES 295 uid is in the transmission.
If uid change, lter change, or clutch service is not
performed within a set period of time, a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) sets with a CHECK TRANS
light, and/or a SERVICE TRANS light (shown as the
wrench icon) in the shift selector or as an additional
light in the dash.
Prognostics can be reset through the Allison
DOC For PCService Tool or, if calibrated to
allow manual reset, through manipulating the shift
selector.
a. Oil Life Monitor. Transmission operating
parameters are monitored to determine remaining
uid and lter life, as well as:

NOTE: The lter life monitor feature is not


available with seven speed transmission
models.
c. Transmission Health. Transmission health
monitors the running clearance of C1, C2, C3, C4,
and C5 clutches to determine clutch plate wear.
Clutch running clearance, based upon clutch ll
volume, indicates remaining clutch life. The C6 and
lockup clutches are not monitored.
d. Shift Selector Display. Only six speed
transmissions using Allison pushbutton or lever
shift selectors can display the prognostic service
indicator icon. Pressing lever shift selector
Diagnostic button or simultaneously pressing the
pushbutton shift selector arrow buttons enters
the diagnostic mode and cycles the shift selector
display. Table 21 correlates the number of button
presses with the type of diagnostic display.

PERIODIC INSPECTION AND CARE

a. Exterior Cleaning and Inspection.


CAUTION: DO NOT pressurewash the
transmission electrical connectors. Water
and detergent will cause the electrical
contacts to corrode and become faulty.
1. Clean and inspect the exterior of the
transmission at regular intervals. Severity of
service and operating conditions determine
the frequency of inspections.
2. Inspect the transmission for:
Loose boltstransmission and mounting
components
Fluid leaks (refer to SIL 12WT02)
repair immediately
Loose, dirty, or improperly adjusted
throttle sensor
Damaged or loose hoses
Worn, frayed, or improperly routed
electrical harnesses
Dented, worn, or outofphase driveline
Ujoints and slip ttings
Clogged or dirty breather
Check transmission uid for evidence of
engine coolant

24.

IMPORTANCE OF PROPER FLUID


LEVEL

a. Transmission Fluid. Transmission uid cools,


lubricates, and transmits hydraulic power. Always
maintain the correct uid level. If the level is too low,
the torque converter and clutches do not receive
enough uid and the transmission overheats. If
the level is too high, the uid aerates causing the
transmission to shift erratically and overheat. Fluid
may be expelled through the breather or dipstick
tube when the uid level is too high.
b. Oil Level Sensor. The Oil Level Sensor (OLS)
allows the operator to check the uid level from
either a fullfunction pushbutton or a lever shift
selector. When an Allison 4 th Generation Controls
striptype pushbutton selector is used, the OLS uid
level information can only be read using Allison
DOC For PC Service Tool.

25.

TRANSMISSION FLUID CHECK

a. Electronic Check Procedure. An Oil Level


Sensor (OLS) is standard for all 3000 product
families except the 3700 SP. The transmission
uid level can be displayed on the shift selector or
Allison DOC For PCService Tool display. Use the
following procedure to display uid level information.
1. For a pushbutton selector, simultaneously
press the (Up) and (Down) arrow buttons
once.
2. On the lever shift selector, press the DISPLAY
MODE button once.
3. For the Allison DOC For PCService Tool,
refer to the Allison DOC For PCService
Tool User Guide GN3433EN.
b. Fluid Level Display Criteria. As soon as uid
level information is requested, the Transmission
Control Module (TCM) checks to see if the
conditions are right to allow display. Certain
operating conditions must be met for a period of two
minutes before uid level is displayed. The display
ashes and an 8, 7,....1 countdown occurs. Fluid
level information displays after the countdown if the
following conditions have been met:

MANUAL FLUID LEVEL CHECK


PROCEDURE
WARNING: To help prevent personal injury
or property damage caused by sudden
and unexpected vehicle movement, do not
check the uid until you:
Put the transmission in N
(Neutral)and
Apply the parking brake and
emergency brakes and make sure
they are properly engagedand
Chock the wheels and take any other
steps necessary to keep the vehicle
from moving.

a. Preparation. Clean all dirt from around the end


of the uid ll tube before removing the dipstick.
Do not allow dirt or foreign matter to enter the
transmission. Dirt or foreign matter in the hydraulic
system may clog passages and cause undue
transmission part wear or sticking valves.
b. Consistency of Readings. Always check
the uid level reading at least twice using the
following Cold Check and Hot Check procedures.
Consistency (repeatable readings) is important
to maintaining proper uid level. If inconsistent
readings persist, check the transmission breather
to be sure it is not clogged. If readings are still
inconsistent, contact your nearest Allison distributor
or dealer.

27.

COLD CHECK (Figure 21)

b. Cold Check Procedure.


1. Park the vehicle on a level surface, chock the
wheels, and apply the parking brake.
2. Run the engine at idle (500800 rpm) for
about one minute. Shift to D (Drive) and then
to R (Reverse) to clear the hydraulic system
of air. Then shift to N (Neutral) and allow the
engine to remain at idle (500800 rpm).
3. With the engine running, remove the dipstick
from the tube and wipe clean.
4. Insert the dipstick into the tube until it stops
and remove. Check the uid level. Repeat the
check procedure to verify the reading.
5. If the uid level is within the COLD CHECK

HOT CHECK (Figure 21)


CAUTION: When performing the Hot Check
procedure, the uid must be at operating
temperature to be sure of an accurate check
and help prevent transmission damage.
The uid level rises as temperature
increases. During operation, an overfull
transmission can become overheated
leading to transmission damage.

a. Purpose. The cold check determines if the


transmission has enough uid to be operated safely
until a hot check can be made.
CAUTION: The uid level rises as
uid temperature rises. DO NOT ll
above COLD CHECK band if the
transmission uid is below normal operating
temperatures. During operation an overfull
transmission can become overheated,
leading to transmission damage.

5. If the uid level is not within the HOT RUN
band, add or drain as necessary to bring the
uid level to within the band. Safe operating
level is within the HOT RUN band on the
dipstick (refer to Figure 21).

29.

KEEPING FLUID CLEAN


CAUTION: Containers or llers that
have been used for antifreeze or engine
coolant solution must NEVER be used for
transmission uid. Antifreeze and coolant
solutions contain ethylene glycol which, if
put into the transmission, can cause clutch
plate failure.

Prevent foreign material from entering the


transmission by using clean containers, llers, etc.
Lay the dipstick in a clean place while lling the
transmission.

a. Hot Check Procedure.
1. Operate the transmission in D (Drive) range
until normal operating temperature is reached:
Sump temperature7193C
(160200F)
Converterout temperature82104C
(180220F).
If a transmission temperature gauge is not
present, check uid level when the engine
water temperature gauge has stabilized and
the transmission has been operated under
load for at least one hour.
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and shift
to N (Neutral). Apply the parking brake and
block the wheels. Allow the engine to idle
(500800 rpm).
3. With the engine running, remove the dipstick
from the tube and wipe clean.
4. Insert the dipstick into the tube until it stops
and remove. Check uid level. Repeat the
check procedure to verify the reading.

210. FLUID RECOMMENDATIONS


NOTE: Effective January 1, 2007, General
Motors no longer licenses DEXRONIII
uids. Fluid specication TES 389 uid
gives OEMs and customers another
approved uid choice. TES 389 uids have
the same uid and lter change intervals as
the former DEXRONIII.

FLUID AND FILTER CHANGE


INTERVAL
CAUTION: Transmission uid and lter
change frequency is determined by the
severity of transmission service. More
frequent changes may be necessary than
recommended in the general guidelines
when operating conditions create high
levels of contamination or overheating.

a. Fluid And Filter Changes. If using gold series


lters, change the main lter after the rst 8000 km
(5000 miles) then follow the recommended uid
and lter change intervals in Table 26.Table 26 is
given only as a general guide for uid and lter
change intervals.
Local conditions, severity of operation, or duty
cycle may require more or less frequent uid
change intervals that differ from the published
recommended uid change intervals of Allison
Transmission. Transmission protection and uid
change intervals can be optimized by the use
of uid analysis. Change lters at or before the
recommended intervals. Refer to SIL 10TR99.
b. High Capacity Filters. Allison 3000 Product
Families transmission high capacity lters were
released into production beginning July 2006.
High capacity lters allow extended lter change
intervals when used with an Allison approved TES
295 uid. High capacity lters can be identied
by P/N 29545777 or 29545780 stamped into the
lter end cap. Previous Allison 3000 Product
Families transmission lters can be identied by
P/N 29538231 or 29538232 stamped into the lter
end cap. When replacing gold series lters with
high capacity lters in transmissions containing
100 percent Allison approved TES 295 uid, it is
allowed to follow high capacity uid and lter change
intervals. Refer to Table 26.

c. Metal.

212. FLUID CONTAMINATION


CAUTION: Transmission uid and lters
must be changed whenever there is
evidence of dirt or a high temperature
condition. A high temperature condition
is indicated when the transmission uid
is discolored, has a strong odor or has
exceeded oil analysis limits shown in
Table 26.

CAUTION: Upon discovering transmission


uid contamination, if there is any doubt
about the total cleanup of the cooler,
replace the cooler. Contamination
remaining in the cooler can recontaminate
the transmission uid.
a. Water.
1. At each uid change, examine the drained
uid for evidence of dirt or water. A normal
amount of condensation will appear in the uid
during operation.

CAUTION: If excessive metal


contamination has occurred, replace
the oil cooler and visually inspect all
bearings in the transmission.
Visible metal particles in the transmission uid
(except for the minute particles normally trapped
in the oil lter) may indicate internal transmission
damage. When these particles are found in the
sump, the transmission must be disassembled
and closely inspected to nd the source. Metal
contamination requires complete transmission
disassembly. Clean all internal and external
hydraulic circuits, cooler, and all other areas where
the particles could lodge.

213. FLUID AND FILTER CHANGE


PROCEDURE
NOTE: Do not drain the uid If only the
lters are being replaced.

2. Obvious water contamination of the


transmission uid requires inspecting and
pressure testing the cooler (heat exchanger)
for leaks between the water and uid areas.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
214. BREATHER
a. Location and Purpose. The breather is located
on top of the transmission converter housing. It
serves to prevent air pressure buildup within the
transmission and must be kept clean and open.

CAUTION: Be sure that the hydraulic


ttings have the same thread as the plugs
removed (71620 UNF2A). Fittings must
be straight thread, Oring style. Failure to
do this will result in damage to the control
valve module.

b. Maintenance.
1. The amount of dust and dirt encountered
determines the frequency of breather cleaning.
Use care when cleaning the transmission
exterior. Spraying steam, water, or cleaning
solution directly at the breather can force
the water or cleaning solution into the
transmission.

2. Install hydraulic ttings suitable for attaching


pressure gauges or transducers.

2. Always use a properly sized wrench to remove


or replace the breather. Pliers or a pipe
wrench can crush or damage the stem and
produce metal chips which could enter the
transmission.

4. Be sure the engine speed can be monitored.


(Allison DOC For PCService Tool may be
used for this purpose.)

215. CHECKING CLUTCH PRESSURES


Measuring individual clutch pressures helps
determine if a transmission malfunction is due to
a mechanical or an electrical problem. Properly
making these pressure measurements requires
transmission and vehicle (or test stand) preparation,
recording of data, and comparing recorded data
against specications provided. These instructions
are for all 3000 Product Families transmissions.

3. Connect pressure gauges or transducers.


Pressure Gauge Set P/N J26417A
is available for this purpose. Refer to
Table 29 for test conditions and to
Table 210 for pressure levels expected.

5. Be sure the transmission sump uid


temperature can be measured. (Allison DOC
For PCService Tool may be used for this
purpose.)
6. Be sure the transmission has enough uid for
cold operation until an operating temperature
uid level can be set.
7. Bring the transmission to normal operating
temperature of 7193C (160200F).
Inspect for uid leaks in the added pressure
gauge/transducer lines. Repair leaks as
needed. Be sure that uid level is correct.

NOTE: Determine if there are Diagnostic


Trouble Codes (DTCs) set which are
related to the transmission difculty you are
evaluating. Proceed to make mechanical
preparations for measuring clutch pressures
after DTCs have rst been evaluated.
a. Transmission and Vehicle Preparation.
1. Remove the plugs from the pressure tap
locations where the measurement is desired
(refer to Figure 24).

NOTE: Measure lockup clutch pressure by
driving the vehicle in a range where lockup
can be obtained. Record the pressure
values at the engine speed and sump uid
temperature values shown in Table 29.
The lockup clutch is functioning correctly
when engine speed and turbine speed
values are equal as recorded from the
Allison DOC For PCService Tool.
2. Refer to Table 29 and locate the transmission
model that you are testing.
3. Operate the transmission at the conditions
shown in Table 29 and record engine speed,
transmission sump uid temperature, main
hydraulic pressure, and clutch pressures in
the ranges where a problem is suspected.
c. Comparing Recorded Data to Specications.
1. Be sure the engine speed and transmission
sump uid temperatures are within the values
specied in Table 29.
2. Compare the main pressure and clutch
pressure data recorded in 215b. Recording
Data, with the specications in Table 210.
3. If clutch pressures are within specications,
return the transmission and vehicle to their
original conguration and proceed with
electrical troubleshooting.
4. If clutch pressures are not within specication,
take corrective action to replace the internal
parts of the transmission necessary to correct
the problem.
Figure 24. Clutch Pressure Check Points
b. Recording Data.
1. The Allison DOC For PCService Tool
allows checking of individual range clutch
pressures with the vehicle stationary. Clutch
Test instructions are located in the Action
Request section of the Allison DOCTM For
PC Service Tool User Guide, GN3433EN.
Follow instructions to check clutch pressures
in individual ranges.

212

5. Measure pressure values after the


transmission has been repaired.
6. Return the transmission to its original
conguration. (Remove instrumentation
and install any components removed for
pressure testing. Pressure tap plugs should
be reinstalled and tightened to 1013 Nm
(710 lb ft.).

216. TRANSMISSION STALL TEST AND
NEUTRAL COOLDOWN CHECK
a. Purpose. Stall testing is performed to determine
if a vehicle performance complaint is due to an
engine or transmission malfunction. Stall testing is
a troubleshooting procedure onlynever perform
a stall test as a general check or during routine
maintenance.

7. Connect Allison DOC For PCService Tool to


the vehicle diagnostic data connector or install
an accurate tachometer (do not rely on the
vehicle tachometer).
8. Install a temperature gauge with the probe in
the transmission converter out (to cooler) line.
Allison DOC For PCService Tool displays
sump temperature only.
9. Install wheel chocks.

Transmission stall speed is the maximum engine


rpm attainable when the engine is at full throttle
and the torque converter turbine is not moving, or
stalled. After a transmission stall test, compare the
actual full throttle engine speed at torque converter
turbine stall with specications established by the
vehicle manufacturer.
NOTE: Obtain engine speed data from the
engine manufacturer or from the equipment
dealer or distributor. Some engine
manufacturers provide a programmable
parameter to limit engine speed when the
transmission output speed is 0 rpm, such
as at a stop. Set this parameter to a higher
value than the expected transmission stall
speed before performing the stall test.
b. Stall Testing Preparation. If a transmission
stall test is to be performed, make sure the following
preparations have been made before conducting
the transmission stall test.
1. The manufacturer concurs with performing a
fullthrottle transmission stall test.
2. The engine programmable parameter for 0
rpm transmission output speed is set higher
than the value expected at transmission stall
speed.
3. The vehicle is in an area in which a
transmission stall test can be safely
performed.
4. Make sure the fuel control linkage goes to full
throttle and does not stick when released.
5. Make sure the engine air induction system
and exhaust system have no restrictions.
6. Perform a cold check of the transmission uid
level and adjust as necessary.

10. A driver is in the drivers position.


11. The vehicles brakes are fully locked.
WARNING: To help avoid personal injury,
such as burns, from hot transmission
uid and/or to help avoid equipment
damage, do not stall the torque converter
for more than ten seconds maximum and
monitor transmission uid temperature.
Immediately return the engine to idle
if converter out (to cooler) temperature
exceeds 150C (300F). Operating the
transmission at high engine power at
transmission stall or near stall conditions
causes a rapid rise in the transmission uid
temperature. The uid in the transmission
torque converter is absorbing all of the
engine power and the vehicle cooling
system cannot dissipate the excessive heat
load. Extended operation under high heat
load conditions causes transmission and
cooling system damage, and can possibly
fail hydraulic lines causing leaking high
temperature uid.

WARNING: To help avoid personal injury


and equipment damage while conducting a
transmission stall test, the vehicle must be
positively prevented from moving. Apply the
parking brake, the service brake, and chock
the wheels securely. Warn personnel to
keep clear of the vehicle and its travel path.
c. Performing a Transmission Stall Test.
1. Start the engine. While in N (Neutral) allow
the transmission to warm to normal operating
temperature:
Sump temperature: 7193C (160200F)

216

Copyright 2009 Allison Transmission, Inc.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Converter out temperature: 82104C
(180220F)
2. Perform a hot check of the transmission uid
level and adjust as necessary
3. Turn all engine accessories off.
4. Place Allison DOC For PCService Tool
in clutch test mode. Use the shift selector
to select D (Drive). Next, select 4 (Fourth
Range) on the Range Panel thats displayed
on the computer screen during Clutch Test
mode. Do not try to use the shift selector
to try to attain 4 (Fourth Range). Using 4
(Fourth Range) reduces the torque imposed
on the transmission driveline. Do not perform
a transmission stall test in R (Reverse).
CAUTION: To help avoid transmission or
driveline damage, full throttle stall tests
must not be performed in R (Reverse)
range, all models, or low ranges, 7speed
models.
5. Notify personnel in the area to keep clear of
the vehicle.
6. Slowly increase engine rpm until engine speed
stabilizes.
7. Record engine speed.
CAUTION: The transmission stall
test procedure causes a rapid rise in
transmission uid temperature that can
damage the transmission. Never maintain a
stall condition once engine speed stabilizes
or converter out (to cooler) temperature
exceeds 150C (300F). During a stall
condition, converter out temperature rises
much faster than the internal (sump)
temperature. Never use sump uid
temperature to determine the length of the
stall condition. If the stall test is repeated,
do not let the engine overheat.

11. At the end of two minutes, record converter


out (to cooler) temperature.
12. Proceed to the Neutral Cool Down Check,
216g. Neutral Cool Down Check Procedure.
d. Driving Transmission Stall Test.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with a
smoke controlled or an emission controlled
engine or engine control programming
inhibiting engine acceleration, the following
stall test procedure can be used.

WARNING: To help avoid personal


injury and/or equipment damage, a driving
transmission stall test must be performed by
a trained driver and a qualied technician.
e. Driving Transmission Stall Testing
Preparation. If a driving transmission stall test is to
be performed, make sure the following preparations
have been made before conducting the test.
1. The manufacturer concurs with performing a
fullthrottle transmission stall test.
2. The engine programmable parameter for 0
rpm transmission output speed is set higher
than the value expected at transmission stall
speed.
3. The vehicle is in an area in which the
transmission stall test can be safely
performed.
4. Make sure the fuel control linkage goes to full
throttle and does not stick when released (if
applicable).
5. Inspect the engine air induction system and
exhaust system to make sure there are no
restrictions.
6. Perform a cold check of the transmission uid
level and adjust as necessary.

8. Record converter out (to cooler) temperature.

7. Connect Allison DOC For PCService Tool to


the vehicle diagnostic data connector.

9. Reduce engine speed to idle and shift the


transmission to N (Neutral).

8. Install an accurate tachometer (do not rely on


the vehicle tachometer).

10. Raise engine speed to 12001500 rpm for two


minutes to cool the transmission uid.

9. Install a temperature gauge with the probe


in the transmission converter out (to cooler)

b. Converter out temperature 82104C
(180220F)
2. Perform a hot check of the transmission uid
level and adjust as necessary.

10. Raise engine speed to 12001500 rpm for two


minutes to cool the transmission uid. At the
end of two minutes, record converter out (to
cooler) temperature.
11. Proceed to the Neutral Cool Down Check
216g. Neutral Cool Down Check Procedure.
g. Neutral Cool Down Check Procedure.
1. At the end of two minutes the converter out
(to cooler) uid temperature should return to
within normal operating temperature range.
2. If the transmission uid does not cool within
two minutes, the cause could be a stuck
torque converter stator or an issue with the
transmission cooler, lines or ttings.
h. Transmission Stall Test Results.
NOTE: Environmental conditions, such
as ambient temperature, altitude, and
engine accessory loss variations affect
the power input to the converter. Due
to such conditions, stall speed can vary
from specication by 150 rpm and still be
accepted as within published stall speed.
If engine speed with the transmission stalled is more
than 150 rpm below the stall speed specication an
engine issue is indicated.

3. Turn all engine accessories off.


4. While located in an isolated area, begin the
driving transmission stall test.

If engine stall speed is more than 150 rpm above


specication, a transmission issue is indicated.

5. Select a hold range that limits road speed,


usually 2 (Second Range) or 3 (Third
Range). Never perform a driving stall test
in R (Reverse) or Low range (seven speed
models).

Conditions that can cause stall speed to 150 rpm


above specication could be:

6. Operate the engine at 100 percent full throttle,


maximum governed speed.
7. With the engine at maximum governed
speed, begin gradually applying the vehicle
service brakes while maintaining 100 percent
full throttle. When the vehicle comes to a
complete stop, record the engine speed.
8. Record converter out (to cooler) temperature.
9. Reduce the engine speed to idle and shift the
transmission to N (Neutral).
218

Transmission uid cavitation or aeration. Verify


proper uid level using the Oil Level Sensor (OLS),
if equipped, or dipstick.
Slipping clutch
Torque converter malfunction
Sticking or damaged torque converter valve.
A low stall speed (at least 33 percent lower than
published stall speed) could indicate an engine issue
or a freewheeling stator in the torque converter.

217. FLUID LEAK DIAGNOSIS
Most uid leaks can be located and repaired by
visually nding the leak and replacing or repairing
the necessary parts. On some occasions, a uid
leak may be difcult to locate or repair. The following
procedure may help in locating and repairing most
leaks.
a. Finding the Leak.
1. Identify the uid. Determine whether it is
engine oil, automatic transmission uid, or
hydraulic uid from a specic vehicle system.

1. Pour the specied amount of dye into the


transmission ll tube.
2. Operate the vehicle under normal operating
conditions as directed in the kit.
3. Direct the black light toward the suspected
area. The dyed uid appears as a brightly
colored path leading to the source.
d. Possible Points of Fluid Leaks and Their
Causes.
Attaching bolts not correctly tightened
Improperly installed or damaged gasket

2. Operate the vehicle to reach normal operating


temperature and park the vehicle. After a few
minutes look for dripping uid to identify the
approximate location of the leak.

Mounting face damaged

3. Inspect around the suspected area. Inspect


all gasket mating surfaces for leaks. A mirror
is useful for nding leaks in areas that are
hard to reach.

Oil cooler connector ttings loose or damaged

4. If the leak still cannot be found, it may be


necessary to clean the suspected area
with a degreaser, steam, or spray solvent.
Completely clean and dry the area. Operate
the vehicle for several miles at normal
operating temperature and varying speeds.
After operating, inspect the suspected leak
area. If the leak is not located, use the powder
or black light and dye methods.

b. Powder Method.

Water or coolant in uiduid appears milky

1. Clean the suspected area.


2. Apply an aerosoltype white powder, such as
foot powder, to the suspected area.

Incorrect electronic uid level indication


Drainback holes plugged

3. Operate the vehicle under normal operating


conditions.

Fluid level/pressure is too high

4. Visually inspect the suspected area and trace


the leak path over the white powder surface
to the source.

Improperly tightened fasteners or dirty/


damaged threads

c. Black Light and Dye Method.


NOTE: A dye and black light kit is
available for nding leaks. Refer to the
manufacturers directions when using the
kit. Refer to kit directions for the color of
the uid and dye mix.

GENERAL OVERHAUL INFORMATION


33.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

a. Ordering Information. Refer to


the latest version of Parts Catalog
PC2150EN, or Allison Transmission Extranet
(www.allisontransmission.com/extranet), for parts
information. Do not order replacement parts using
the reference numbers in this service manual.

35.

CLEANING AND INSPECTION

a. Dirt Causes Malfunction. All parts must be


clean to permit effective inspection. Do not allow dirt
or foreign material to enter the transmission during
assembly. Even minute particles can cause closet
parts, such as valves, to malfunction.
b. Cleaning Parts.

b. Parts Normally Replaced at Overhaul. The


following parts are normally replaced at each
transmission overhaul:
Gaskets
Orings
Bushings
Input and output shaft seals
Thrust washers
Retaining rings damaged by removal or
abnormal wear
Spiral retaining ring (4) (Foldout 81)
Piston sealrings
Oil lters
Suction lter (2) (Foldout 151)
Clutch packs, as required

2. Dry all parts, except bearing assemblies, with


compressed air. To prevent rust, lubricate
steamcleaned parts as soon as they are dry.
3. Clean uid passages by working a piece of
soft wire through the passages and ushing
them with mineral spirits. Dry the passages
with compressed air.
4. Examine parts, especially uid passages,
after cleaning to make certain they are entirely
clean. Reclean parts if necessary.
c. Cleaning Bearings.

WARNING: Do not burn discarded Teon


seals toxic gases are produced by burning
Teon.

34.

1. Clean all metallic transmission parts, except


bearings and frictionfaced clutch plates, by
steamcleaning or with volatile mineral spirits.
Do not use caustic soda solution for steam
cleaning. Clean frictionfaced clutch plates
and bearings with mineral spirits only.

CAREFUL HANDLING

Handle parts and subassemblies carefully to


prevent nicking, scratching, and denting. Parts that
t closely together and have a specic operating
clearance can bind if damaged. Parts that depend
upon smooth surfaces for sealing may leak if
scratched. Control valve body assembly parts
are especially susceptible to leaking if scratched.
Valves, when dry, must move freely by their own
weight. Handle these parts carefully and protect
them during removal, cleaning, inspection, and
installation. Keep control valve body assembly parts
in clean containers until installation.

1. Bearings that have been in service should be


thoroughly cleaned in volatile mineral spirits.
2. Soak particularly dirty bearings or ones lled
with hardened grease in mineral spirits before
trying to clean them.
WARNING: Never dry bearings by spinning
them with compressed air. A spinning
bearing can disintegrate, allowing balls or
rollers to become lethal ying projectiles.
Also, spinning a bearing without lubrication
can damage the bearing.
3. Before inspection, lubricate the bearings with
transmission uid.
d. Keeping Bearings Clean. Ball or roller bearing
failures are usually caused by dirt or grit in the
bearing. Keep bearings clean during removal and
installation. Observe the following rules to provide
maximum bearing life:

Copyright 2009 Allison Transmission, Inc.

37

SERVICE MANUAL3000 Product FamilyAllison 4th Generation


ControlsVOCATIONAL MODELS
Do not unwrap new bearings until they are to
be installed.
Do not remove the grease in which new
bearings are packed until they are to be
installed.
Do not lay bearings on a dirty bench. Place
bearings on clean, lintfree paper.
If a bearing is not installed immediately, wrap
or cover the lubricated bearing with clean
paper or lintfree cloth to keep out dust.
e. Inspecting Bearings.
1. Inspect bearings for rough rotation. Replace
a bearing if its rotation is still rough after
cleaning and lubrication.
2. Inspect bearings for scored, pitted, scratched,
cracked, or chipped races, and for excessive
roller or ball wear. Replace the bearing if any
defects are found.
3. Inspect a defective bearings bore and mating
shaft for grooved, burred, or galled conditions
that indicate the bearing has been turning in
the bore or on the shaft. If the damage cannot
be repaired with crocus cloth, replace the
defective part.
4. When removing a bearing, do not apply
pressure across the balls. This can cause
brinelling and bearing failure.
5. If a bearing must be removed or installed
without the proper tool, press only on the race
which is adjacent to the mounting surface.
If a press is not available, carefully seat the
bearing with a drift and hammer.
NOTE: When installing thrust bearings
on to a pilot or bore, take care to ensure
that the llet on either the ID or the OD
of the bearing mates with the llet of
the respective pilot or bore (Figure 34).
Failure to do so will result in bearing failure
and transmission damage.

f. Inspecting Cast Parts and Machined
Surfaces.
1. Inspect bores for wear, scratches, grooves,
and dirt. Remove scratches and burrs with
crocus cloth. Clean the part. Replace parts
that are deeply scratched or grooved.
2. Inspect all uid passages for obstructions.
If an obstruction is found, remove it with
compressed air, or by working a soft wire back
and forth through the passage and ushing it
out with mineral spirits.
3. Inspect mounting faces for nicks, burrs,
scratches, and foreign matter. Remove any
defects with crocus cloth or a soft stone.
Clean the part. If scratches are deep, replace
the defective part.
4. Inspect threaded openings for damaged
threads. Clean damaged threads with the
correct size tap.
CAUTION: Some parts have Spiralock
threaded holes. A repairable threaded hole
can only be repaired using a Spiralock
tap. A standard tap will eliminate the
locking feature and require that the part
be replaced. Spiralock taps are available

retention.

4. Install a new hooktype sealring if the old ring


shows any wear on its outside diameter, or if
there is excessive side wear.

3. Inspect hooktype sealrings for wear, broken


hooks, and distortion.

5. Inspect the ribs inside the main housing for


reaction plate wear grooves in the side of the
ribs. Replace housings that have splines worn
beyond wear limits. (Refer to Wear Limits,
Table 71 in Section 7)

5. Measure sealring end gap by inserting the


sealring into its respective sealing bore. Use
a feeler gauge to measure end gap. Discard
sealrings having excessive end gap. (Refer
to Section 7. WEAR LIMITS AND SPRING
DATA.)

6. Replace housings or other cast parts that are


cracked.
7. Inspect all machined surfaces for damage that
could cause uid leakage or other malfunction.
Rework or replace defective parts.

6. Inspect clutch housing sealing surfaces for


nicks, burrs, dents, or displaced metal that
could interfere with mating parts or damage
the piston seal. Remove raised metal, sharp
edges, burrs, or nicks with a soft stone and
crocus cloth. Thoroughly clean all residue
from the housing before assembly.

8. Inspect the oil tracks of the control valve


module and main housing for porosity,
broken lands, cracks, dirt, and land surface
imperfections. These imperfections will cause
severe uid leakage leading to transmission
failure.

7. Inspect piston sealring grooves for nicks,


burrs, dents, or displaced metal that could
damage the seal. Remove raised metal, sharp
edges, burrs, or nicks with a soft stone and
crocus cloth. Thoroughly clean all residue
from the piston before assembly.

g. Inspecting Bushings and Thrust Washers.


1. Inspect bushings for scores, burrs, sharp
edges, and evidence of overheating. Remove
scores with crocus cloth. Remove burrs and
sharp edges with a scraper or knife blade.
Before installing, carefully inspect bushings
for signs of distress.
CAUTION: When removing a defective
bushing do not damage the bushing bore.
2. Replace bushings that are out ofround,
deeply scored, or excessively worn. Inspect
parts mated to bushings to be sure they are
not damaged or worn beyond use.
3. Inspect thrust washers for distortion, scores,
burrs, and wear. Replace a thrust washer if
defective or worn.
h. Inspecting Sealrings and Gaskets.
1. Inspect piston sealrings and liptype seals for
nicks, cuts, tears, splits, and pattern damage.
A damaged seal can indicate rough or sharp

i.

Inspecting Gears.
1. Inspect gears for scuffed, nicked, burred, or
broken teeth. If a defect cannot be removed
with a soft stone, replace the gear.
2. Inspect gear teeth for wear that has changed
the original tooth shape. If this condition is
found, replace the gear.
3. Inspect the thrust face of gears for scores,
scratches, and burrs. Remove such defects
with a soft stone. If scratches and scores
cannot be removed with a soft stone, replace
the gear.
4. Inspect gears for load pattern and signs of
distress. Any sign of distress indicates that
a gear failure during operation is possible.
Reusing distressed gears is an individual
customer decision based on experience.
Backlash cannot be used to establish critical
gear wear. Backlash tolerances are of such
nature that a gear usually pits, scuffs, scores,

or galls long before gear wear becomes
critical.
j.

Inspecting Splined Parts.


1. Inspect splined parts for stripped, twisted,
chipped, or burred splines. Remove burrs with
a soft stone. Replace the part if other defects
are found. Spline wear is not considered
harmful except where it affects the t of the
splined parts.
2. Spline wear is determined by comparing feeler
gauge thickness with the thickness of the
worn area on the spline. Replace parts having
excessive spline wear. (Refer to Section
7. WEAR LIMITS AND SPRING DATA). If
spline wear limits are not specied in 38.
WEAR LIMITS, then use 0.38 mm (0.015 inch)
maximum wear as the specication.

burrs and minor surface irregularities using a


soft stone. Replace plates which have any
defects.
3. The amount of clutch plate cone is determined
by measuring the distance between the inside
diameter of the plate and a level surface
(Figure 35). Discard plates having excessive
cone. (Refer to Section 7. WEAR LIMITS
AND SPRING DATA).
4. Determine oil groove depth with a depth
micrometer or by measuring the smooth
surface (total) thickness of the plate,
measuring the thickness of the steel part of
the plate at the oil groove, and subtracting
this measurement from the total thickness.
Replace plates not having the minimum oil
groove depth. (Refer to Section 7. WEAR
LIMITS AND SPRING DATA).

3. Backlash cannot be used to establish critical


spline wear. Accurate backlash measurement
requires the mating parts to be concentrically
located.
k. Inspecting Threaded Parts. Inspect threaded
parts for burred or damaged threads. Remove burrs
with a soft stone or ne le. Replace damaged parts.
l. Inspecting Retaining Rings. Inspect all
retaining rings for nicks, distortion, or excessive
wear. Replace the retaining ring if any defects are
found. The retaining ring must snap tightly into its
groove to function properly.
m. Inspecting Springs. Inspect springs for signs
of overheating, permanent set, or wear due to
rubbing adjacent parts. Replace the spring if any
one of these defects are found. (Refer to Table 72.)
n. Inspecting Clutch Plates (Figure 35).
1. Inspect frictionfaced clutch plates (internally
splined plates) for burrs, embedded metal
particles, severely pitted faces, loose faces,
excessive wear, cone, cracks, distortion,
shallow oil groove depth, or damaged spline
teeth. Remove burrs using a soft honing
stone. Replace plates which have any defects.
2. Inspect steel plates (externaltanged plates)
for burrs, scoring, excessive wear, excessive
cone, distortion, imbedded metal, galling,
cracks, breaks, or damaged tangs. Remove

o. Inspecting Swaged and InterferenceFit
Parts. If there is evidence of looseness, the
assembly should be replaced.
p. Inspecting Retainer and Ball Assembly in
Retarder Stator. Inspect balls in the retarder stator
for free movement. Inspect the staking that retains
the balls. Any restriction could prevent the ball from
seating during retarder application.
q. Inspecting Sealing Surfaces.
1. Inspect surfaces in contact with hooktype,
scarfcut, and buttjoint sealrings for step
wear, nicks, scratches, and scoring. Use a soft
stone or crocus cloth to remove only the raised
metal portion of these defects. Polishing the
area to remove a defect is neither necessary
nor desirable. If the defects are too severe to
correct, replace the defective part.

GENERAL OVERHAUL INFORMATION


2. Inspect surfaces in contact with springloaded,
liptype seals for nicks, scratches, roughness,
or other surface irregularities. Inspect for
embedded particles, stepwear, and dirt on
anges or other components exposed to
external contamination. Remove the defects
and restore the nish. Replace the part if
scores or scratches permit uid leakage.
NOTE: Beginning January 2006 and with
S/N 6510630089 and S/N 6520057820,

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

a. Parts Lubrication. During nal assembly,


lubricate all moving parts with transmission uid.
The uid helps protect friction surfaces and ferrous
metals until the unit is in service.

316

b. Grease Used for Assembly. During assembly


use oilsoluble grease with a low melting point
(petrolatum) to temporarily retain parts, buttjoint
sealrings, scarfcut sealrings, and hooktype
sealrings.
c. Sealing Compounds and Nonsoluble
Greases. Do not use gaskettype sealing
compounds, brous greases, or nonsoluble
vegetablebased cooking compounds inside the
transmission, or where they could be ushed into
the transmission hydraulic system.
d. Clutches and Pistons.
1. Soak each frictionfaced clutch plate (two
minute minimum) in transmission uid before
nal assembly.
2. Apply a generous amount of transmission uid
to the piston cavity before nal assembly.
3. Assemble clutch plates so the cone of each
plate faces the same direction.

Copyright 2009 Allison Transmission, Inc.

GENERAL OVERHAUL INFORMATION


e. Threaded Plugs and Hydraulic Fittings.
CAUTION:

3. Using a feeler gauge, measure the end


clearance of the sealring. The end clearance
must not be less than specications allow.

Do not use Teon tape on threaded


parts. Slivers can cause the
transmission to malfunction.

4. If the end clearance is less than minimum


specications, bake the sealring at 93149C
(200300F) for 24 hours or get a new
sealring. Repeat 2 and 3.

Improperly installed plugs or ttings


can cause leakage and cracked
housings.

5. Pack the sealring and its groove with a liberal


amount of oilsoluble grease.

Threaded plugs in 3000 Product Families


transmissions are straightthread Oring type plugs.
Be sure the Oring is in likenew condition and
tighten all plugs to the torque values specied in
the assembly procedure or in disassembled views.
Tighten other ttings sufciently to prevent leakage.
f. Coated Threaded Fasteners. 3000 Product
Families control valve module bolts and 3700 SP
adapter housing bolts are being manufactured with
a band of thread sealant on the threads.

6. Roll up the sealring to about half its free


diameter and hold it for about 10 seconds.
Being careful not to spread the sealring more
than necessary, slide it onto the hub. Place
one end of the sealring into the groove and
gradually work the seal into the groove.
i. Bearings. If a bearing must be removed or
installed without an installation sleeve, drive or press
only on the race which is adjacent to the mounting
surface. If a press is not available, carefully seat the
bearing with a drift and a hammer, driving against
the supported race.

g. LipType Seals.
1. When replacing liptype seals, make sure
the springloaded lip is toward the uid to be
sealed (toward the inside of the unit). Coat
the inside of the seal with high temperature
grease (MILG3545A or equivalent) to protect
the seal during shaft installation and to provide
lubrication during initial operation.
2. The circumference of some seals is precoated
with a dry sealant. The sealant is usually
colored for easy identication. Precoated
seals do not require any additional sealant
before installation.
h. ButtJoint Sealrings.
1. Buttjoint sealrings require special handling
during assembly. The sealrings contain
materials that absorb moisture from the
atmosphere causing the sealring to expand.
The sealrings are shipped in airtight packages.
Do not open the sealed package until the
buttjoint sealring is ready to be installed into
the transmission.

p. Installation of the Torque Converter Module
(Figure 615).
1. The torque converter is installed over the
turbine shaft which rotates inside the stator
shaft or ground sleeve. The splines on the
ground sleeve engage the converter stator
race. The splines on the turbine shaft engage
the converter turbine. The end of the turbine
shaft is threaded and machined to accept the
converter retaining bolt and lockup seal ring.
2. The splines of the ground sleeve and turbine
shaft must engage with their respective
splines in the torque converter module. The
tangs on the converter pump hub must engage
the charging pump tangs or the PTO oil pump
drive hub.
3. Using a hoist and sling, install torque converter
module (6) into the converter housing module
(Figure 615, View A).

7. Measure from top of J38548 Converter End


Play Gauge to face of turbine shaft and record
it as dimension B. Subtract dimension B from
dimension A dimension A is the height of

SECTION 8CUSTOMER SERVICE


81.

OWNER ASSISTANCE

The satisfaction and goodwill of the owners of


Allison transmissions are of primary concern to
Allison Transmission, its distributors, and their
dealers.
As an owner of an Allison transmission, you have
service locations throughout the world that are
eager to meet your parts and service needs with:
Expert service by trained personnel
Emergency service 24 hours a day in many
areas
Complete parts support
Sales teams to help determine your
transmission requirements
Product information and literature.
Normally, any situation that arises in connection with
the sale, operation, or service of your transmission
will be handled by the distributor or dealer in
your area. Check the telephone directory for the
Allison Transmission service outlet nearest you
or use Allison Transmissions Sales and Service
Locator tool on the Allison Transmission web site at
www.allisontransmission.com. You may also refer to
Allison Transmissions Worldwide Sales and Service
Directory (SA2229EN).
We recognize, however, that despite the
best intentions of everyone concerned,
misunderstandings may occur. To further assure
your complete satisfaction, we have developed the
following threestep procedure to be followed in the
event a problem has not been handled satisfactorily.
Step OneDiscuss your problem with a member
of management from the distributor or dealership.
Frequently, complaints are the result of a breakdown
in communication and can be resolved quickly by
a member of management. If you have already
discussed the problem with the sales or service
manager, contact the general manager. All Allison
Transmission dealers are associated with an Allison
Transmission distributor. If the problem originates
with a dealer, explain the matter to a management
member of the distributor with whom the dealer has
his service agreement. The dealer will provide his
Allison Transmission distributors name, address,
and telephone number on request.

Step TwoWhen it appears the problem cannot


be readily resolved at the distributor level without
additional assistance, contact the Allison Technical
Assistance Center at 8002525283. They will place
you in contact with the regional customer support
manager for your area.
For prompt assistance, please have the following
information available.
Name and location of the authorized distributor
or dealer
Type and make of vehicle/equipment
Transmission model number, serial number,
and assembly number (if equipped with
electronic controls, also provide the
Transmission Control Module [TCM] assembly
number)
Transmission delivery date and accumulated
miles and/or hours of operation
Nature of problem
Chronological summary of your transmissions
history
Step ThreeIf you are still not satised after
contacting the regional customer support manager,
present the entire matter to the home ofce by
writing to the following address:
Allison Transmission
Manager, Warranty Administration
P.O. Box 894, Mail Code A01
Indianapolis, IN 462060894
Including all pertinent information will assist the
home ofce in expediting the matter.
When contacting the home ofce, please keep
in mind that ultimately the problem will likely be
resolved at the distributor or dealership using their
facilities, equipment, and personnel. Therefore,
it is suggested that Step 1 be followed when
experiencing a problem.
Your purchase of an Allison Transmission product is
greatly appreciated, and it is our sincere desire to
assure complete satisfaction.
