    G02143988
  23. Align index marks and position the alignment bushing on the transmission flange piloting system.
    24. CAUTION: Install the bolts, washers and nuts in their original positions or driveshaft imbalance can occur. Install the driveshaft flex coupling bolts with the head of the bolt seated against the flange, and the nuts seated against the flex coupling. Install the short bolts in the front and the long bolts in the rear.
    NOTE: The bolt heads are serrated. Hold the bolt and tighten the nut.

    G02143991
  27. Lower the vehicle.
    28. NOTE: When the battery is disconnected or a new battery installed, certain transmission operating parameters can be lost. The powertrain control module (PCM) must relearn these parameters. During this learning process, you may experience slightly firm shifts, delayed, or early shifts. This operation is considered normal and will not affect the function of the transmission. Normal operation will return once these parameters are stored by the PCM.
  28. Connect the battery ground cable.
  29. Raise and support the vehicle.
  30. Carry out the fluid level check. For additional information, refer to FLUID LEVEL CHECK .
  31. Verify that the shift cable is correctly adjusted. For additional information, refer to AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION - EXTERNAL CONTROLS - LS .
  32. Check the operation of the transmission and inspect for leaks.
