Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm connector shape, terminal style, and push-in mounting before installation. Inspect the transmission case opening and wiring connector for damage, corrosion, or fluid contamination, and verify the replacement sensor seats fully before reconnecting the harness. For best results, compare the original sensor to TX299 before installation on Ford F-150, Ford Taurus, or Lincoln Town Car applications.
