What will happen if there is a blockage in the automatic transmission cooler?
Transmission Temperature Increase Since the cooler’s job is to flow trans fluid to lower temps, if there is a clog in the cooler, the fluid may not be able to flow properly, which would result in overheating the fluid. The most obvious symptom of extreme transmission temperatures is the smell of something burning.
Is the transmission cooler a flow through device?
Yes. The transmission cooler is a flow-through device and operates anytime the engine is running. The fluid will flow from the transmission to the OEM cooler and then to the aftermarket cooler; and finally, the cooled fluid flows back to the transmission in a continuous loop.
What are the symptoms of a transmission cooler failure?
1. Transmission Line Leak One of the most obvious transmission cooler failure or blown transmission line symptoms is a leak. When a line leaks, there will be transmission fluid on the ground near where the leak is coming from.
What causes transmission oil cooler to flush and flow?
A digital display indicates the ATF flow rate in gallons per minute (GPM) along with the amount of ATF in the supply vessel, supply vessel ATF temperature, machine cycles and the operating mode. Insufficient oil flow through the transmission oil cooling system will cause premature transmission failure.
Is it possible to replace a transmission cooler?
If you need to replace a transmission cooler, the process isn’t difficult. You can remove the old cooler and replace it with an aftermarket option, which saves you on labor. However, if you plan to install an aftermarket transmission cooler for a boost in performance, you will have more work to do.
