Line drawing of an AX4S transaxle identifying line pressure, EPC, direct clutch and cooler line pressure tap locations.

AI caption · Photo 503 of 575

This document is a labeled line-art diagram of the Ford AX4S automatic transaxle, viewed from the case exterior, identifying the locations of its diagnostic pressure taps and fittings. Four callouts point to specific locations on the transaxle housing: the line pressure tap (where a pressure gauge is connected for testing), the direct clutch tap, the cooler line fitting, and the EPC (Electronic Pressure Control) pressure tap located on the outside of the transaxle. The transaxle is identified by the label "AX4S" in the lower right corner of the illustration. A reader can learn from this diagram exactly where to attach a pressure gauge to check main line pressure, where to test direct clutch apply pressure, where the transmission cooler line attaches to the case, and where EPC pressure can be measured externally. This type of illustration is typically used during transmission pressure diagnosis and troubleshooting procedures. The document itself contains no year, model, torque specification, or part number information, it is purely a port/tap location identification drawing for the AX4S transaxle.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I connect a pressure gauge to test line pressure on an AX4S transaxle?
The diagram shows the line pressure tap on the top of the transaxle case, labeled 'LINE PRESSURE TAP CONNECT PRESSURE GAUGE'.
Where is the EPC pressure tap on the AX4S?
Per the diagram, the EPC pressure tap is on the outside of the transaxle, near the cooler line fitting on the lower side of the case.
Does the AX4S have a direct clutch pressure tap?
Yes, the diagram labels a 'DIRECT CLUTCH TAP' on the upper right area of the transaxle case.
Where is the cooler line fitting located on the AX4S transaxle?
The diagram shows the cooler line fitting on the left/lower side of the transaxle case, near the EPC pressure tap.
