The automatic transmission fluid cooler is located behind the front fascia, and in the front of the condenser. The transmission fluid cooler is a air-to-oil cooler that allows heat in the transmission fluid to be transferred to the air passing over the cooler fins.
OPERATION:
Transmission fluid is routed through the transmission fluid cooler where heat is removed from the transmission fluid before returning to the transmission.
The transmission fluid heat exchanger uses engine coolant to assist in cooling the transmission fluid. It also incorporates the quick connect fittings for the transmission fluid cooler lines.
HEAT EXCHANGER:
- The transmission heat exchanger cools the Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) by means of engine coolant.
- The transmission heat exchanger coolant hoses are routed to the engine radiator hoses.
- ATF runs through the transmission heat exchanger through transmission fluid tubes.
