100

This component when fails presents with a Popping/Clunk sound during initial Acceleration/Deceleration or initial movement in Reverse

What is the U-Joint

100

This component when fails presents with an inability to shift gears while coming from a stand still

What is a Clutch brake

100

During a Transmission rebuild, this procedure if not done properly will cause shifting problems and grinding gears leading to possible damage to the gear train system

What is Timing the Shafts

100

This procedure must be done using an appropriate scan tool during certain component replacements on an Automated Transmission.

What is a Relearn/Re-calibration Procedure

100

This component when fails begins to allow debris to flow in the system and can be found on the dipstick in extreme situations

What is a Fiber gear Failure

200

This type of U-joint can be found on certain types of Automated Manual transmissions and requires no grease as the component is sealed for life and last longer

What is an RPL style U-Joint

200

This component is easily identified as failed when separating a transmission from the engine, pieces of this component fall out from the clutch housing. This component is found on the Clutch disc

What is a Torsion Spring

200

This component utilizes air pressure and allows for the transmission to reach higher and lower sets of gears

What is the High-Low Range Splitter

200

This test is performed with a Multimeter and used to determine when a wiring harness has failed.


What is a Pin to Pin Resistance Test

200

This type of failure can be found by performing excessive stop and go driving and driving while over weight which could cause internal failure of the transmission components

What is Fluid Overheating

300

This type of driveline failure can be found with an audible grumbling sound coming from the driveline but only while in motion.

What is a Carrier Bearing Failure

300
This component when not lubricated properly will present with an audible grinding sound while the clutch pedal is depressed. 

What is a Throw Out Bearing

300

This switch when closed triggers a back up alarm and lights to turn on and can be found on the Top Plate

What is the Reverse Switch

300

During instrumentation or sensor failure on an Automated Manual transmission, the transmissions will default to this action.

What is a Safety Neutral Protocol

300

This symptom presents when a transmission experiences failures during cold starting and goes away when the transmission fluid builds proper temperature

What is Morning Sickness

400

This component is responsible for allowing the driveshaft system to flex it's length to accommodate suspension movements from the differential

What is the Slip Yoke

400

This component failure causes the manual transmission input shaft to become rounded out and damaged.

What is a Failed Pilot Bearing

400

This component is part of the Top Plate and sits in between grooves of the Synchronizers

What is the Shift Forks

400

This feature prevents the automated Manual transmission from shock loading the Driveline system to prevent u-joint failure

What is Torque Limiting

400

This component is responsible for when sealing a transmission solenoid and when fails has a flat or square appearance.

What is an O-Ring

500

The Driveline failure can be diagnosed when the driver reports a Chassis Vibration that is responsive to Road Speed

What is an Out of Phase Driveline

500

This service procedure should be completed during a clutch replacement, and when missed will present with clutch slipping, glazing, and possible squeaking sounds while engaging and disengaging the clutch

What is a Flywheel Resurface

500

This component sits in the main shaft and missing teeth in the gears that sit on the main shaft slide over this during assembly and disassembly.

What is the Main Shaft Key

500

While driving in this condition, the automated Manual transmission will begin it's initial gear in a higher gear to facilitate a quicker start off.

What is Bobtailing

500

This component is used to control when a clutch pack is to be stationary or allowed to rotate along with a set of planetary gears

What is a Clutch Solenoid
