NOTE:
- If the piston travel in this step is 3-5.6 mm (0.120-0.220 in), it is within specification. If the piston travel is greater than 5.6 mm (0.220 in), use the next longer piston and rod. If the piston travel is less than 3 mm (0.120 in), use the next shorter piston and rod.
- Back out the servo gauge adjusting screw until it bottoms out on the tool. Record the distance the servo piston traveled.

NOTE:
- When the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms can occur while the vehicle relearns its adaptive strategy. The customer needs to be notified that they may experience slightly different upshifts either soft or firm and this is a temporary condition and will eventually return to normal operating condition.
- Connect the negative battery cable.
- Fill the transmission to the proper fluid level and check for proper transmission operation.
