What vehicles does this MLP/TR sensor connector swap kit apply to?

The document states the kit is to be used when installing a remanufactured E4OD transmission in a 1989-1994 vehicle.

How do you remove the terminals from the old MLP/TR connector?

Pull the 'red' pin separator plate straight out with needle-nose pliers, then use a small flat-bladed (jewelers type) screwdriver to release the locking finger while gently pulling the terminal/wire assembly through the back of the connector — one at a time.

Why must the back cover and grommet be removed before inserting pins?

The document cautions that inserting the pin/wire into the connector assembly without first removing the back cover and grommet will cut the grommet, allowing water and contaminates to enter the connector.

What should be done if wires or terminals show corrosion or damage?

They should be replaced; if you must splice into the harness, refer to the 'Splicing Instructions' on Sheets 4 thru 6 of this instruction set.

This document is Sheet 1 of 6 of Ford Instruction Sheet I.S. 6628A, titled '1995 MLP/TR Sensor Connector Assembly Swap Instructions' (© 1996 Ford Motor Company, Dearborn, Michigan, dated 11-96). It covers kit F5TZ-7A247-AVMR, used when installing a remanufactured E4OD transmission in a 1989-1994 vehicle. A kit contents table lists five parts: connector assembly F4TB-14A464-AAB, 'Red' pin separator F3DB-14A468-CB, 6-pin grommet E9TB-14603-CA, 7-pin grommet F4SB-14603-LA, and instruction sheet I.S. 6628A. The service procedure explains selecting the correct 6-, 7-, or 8-hole grommet, optionally disconnecting the solenoid body connector for harness access (removing two heat shield screws and depressing the release button), pulling the red pin separator plate from the old dual-tab MLP/TR sensor connector with needle-nose pliers, releasing each terminal's locking finger with a small flat-bladed screwdriver, and inserting pin/wire assemblies one at a time through the back cover and grommet into the new connector until a snap is felt. Cautions warn against slicing the grommet by inserting pins without removing the back cover, and note damaged wires or terminals should be replaced, with splicing instructions on Sheets 4-6.
