New Wiring Harness Assembly with an in-line temperature sensor. Replaces current design Temperature Sensor. (Refer to Figures 2, 3)

START OF PRODUCTION DATE: (Refer to Figure 1) --------------------------------------------- Starting March 31, 1992 (Julian Date 090) all 1992 HYDRA-MATIC 4L80-E/ 4L80-EHD Transmissions were built with a new Wiring Harness Assembly which has an in-line temperature sensor.

SERVICE PROCEDURE:

Transmissions built prior to this date can be serviced with the previous design Sensor. To service the new wiring harness, leave the current sensor in the previous valve body unconnected. There is no connector for the sensor. To service the previous valve body assembly use the new wiring harness assembly and the valve body assembly together, available in a service package. New valve body assembly cannot be serviced with previous wiring harness.

CAUTION:

Use care when removing the wiring harness connectors. Broken connectors require a new harness assembly.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
