The AOD-E transmission is a four speed, rear wheel drive, automatic overdrive transmission which is completely electronic controlled and includes a torque converter clutch. In its general appearance it resembles the hydraulically controlled AOD transmission. The easiest identification between the two will be the two shafts protruding from the front on the AOD-E unit as opposed to the three shafts on the AOD. This manual provides the procedures necessary to service, repair or overhaul this unit, along with the electrical diagnosing methods necessary. You will notice that several pieces of diagnosing equipment that will be necessary for quick and accurate diagnosing.
