ATSG Ford/Mercury AODE Transmission Techtran Manual - Cover Scan

This is a photograph of the front cover of an ATSG (Automatic Transmission Service Group) Techtran™ Manual for the Ford/Mercury AODE automatic transmission. The cover features the ATSG logo in the upper left, a banner reading "FORD/MERCURY TECHTRAN™ MANUAL" in the upper right, and the transmission designation "AODE" printed vertically along the left side. The central artwork is a technical line drawing of the AODE transmission case viewed from the bellhousing end with the output shaft, superimposed over a planetary gearset drawing and two transmission electrical connector pin-out diagrams with numbered terminals; a notation of "120 DEGREES" appears beneath the connectors. The bottom banner reads "AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SERVICE GROUP." As only the cover is shown, no internal service procedures, torque specifications, part numbers, or year applicability are visible in this image. A reader learns that this is the ATSG rebuild/technical service manual covering the Ford AODE electronic 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission used in Ford and Mercury vehicles; the manual itself would contain teardown, diagnosis, and reassembly information for that unit.
