Nissan Micra Automatic Transaxle Assembly Steps 16-21 - Governor Shaft Torque

This page is from a service manual's automatic transaxle ASSEMBLY section, covering steps 16 through 21 of reassembly. Step 16 describes installing the one-way clutch together with the rear carrier by turning the rear carrier clockwise, with a note that the projection should face upward. Step 17 covers installing the snap ring, ensuring its bent end is positioned so it does not interfere with the parking pawl (illustrated with labels for snap ring, bent end, and parking pawl). Step 18 instructs applying vaseline to the bearing race and attaching it to the rear internal gear, with a photograph identifying the bearing race and thrust washer. Steps 19 and 20 cover installing the rear internal gear, assembling the governor shaft assembly, and installing the governor shaft retaining bolt, which is torqued to 3.4-6.9 N·m (0.35-0.7 kg-m, 2.5-5.1 ft-lb). Step 21 covers installing the seal bushing, with a bold caution never to forget the seal bushing to prevent the sun gear and output shaft from becoming jammed. Illustration reference codes SAT391, SAT392, SAT393, SAT269, and SAT268 appear beside the figures. A reader learns the correct order, orientation notes, and one torque specification for this stage of transaxle assembly.
