    LU stands for “Lock-Up”. It’s the solenoid that controls signal pressure to the torque converter lock-up clutch.

      Yes, LU stands for lock up. But no, on this machine that port is not used. It should be plugged, with solenoids in the UP and DN ports. I have no idea why the solenoid was in the wrong spot.

      All the old engineers who grew up on farms were way way way more talented then the engineers we have nowadays. Engineers had to put time and effort into designing equipment and had a much greater respect for how things were put together when it had to be drawn on paper and manufactured with simpler machines. They didn’t have the opportunity to quickly throw together something in CAD. Revisions took a tremendous amount of time so they thought about designs before having parts made. The corporate fucks didn’t meddle as much in shit either.

    I think you’re on the right track as far as the actual transmission problems. The valve body definitely looked bad when you separated it. It doesn’t take much as you know to cause issues with any kind of rust or debris in there. Torque converter should be a quick tear down and will tell the rest of the story.

    Great video. I love working in transmissions and this was fascinating to me. As to the failure... I'm wondering if they had a failure and did a DIY repair where they failed to really clean anything (explaining the obvious material found at the beginning), and just replaced the frictions. That would explain the overheated steel - that was from the previous failure. They put it back together, and put the solenoid in the wrong port, then gave up when it failed on them again. Based on the yellow washer and the free socket, I'm betting this was a DIY repair by whoever owned this thing. It would explain a lot. PLEASE upload the rebuild video. I want to see this thing go back together!!!

A Powershift transmission sounds simple until you start tearing them apart and have parts scattered across the shop. I appreciate the no nonsense commentary. I especially liked the Cricket comment, I’m sure some people would think you could control the cricket’s chirping. That looks like a bunch of expensive parts if you had to buy them from CAT.

    KT, if those are anything like a normal automatic, those clutch disks do NOT appreciate water AT ALL. They will come off what they are mated to. Also, when you replace them, I recommend you soak them in fluid before installing them in a clean unit. Soaking them will bring them to their standard, in-use, stack height, so you can get your clearances and stack heights correct. I would also check the book for all of those load springs to ensure their heights are within spec. When you are looking at the planetary gears, check them thoroughly to ensure the load washers between them and the housing are still in good shape. I bet those are fairly costly to replace if they are bad. I have watched you while assembling something and you are exceptionally particular with cleanliness, this is one crazy aspect where that OCD is well worth it my friend - surgically clean is best. (LOL) I really appreciate watching what you do - KEEP 'EM COMING!!! (Looking forward to you and that valve body)

    That's where my socket went! Just paying it forward because I found a 8mm one in the oil pan of my old Toyota 20R once.

    the metallic particles you found at the start are perfectly normal for a transmission of that size, as long as it is "dust" and not "needles" you shouldnt worrry about that. every piece looked brand new, im willing to bet that's not where the problem is, if there is any

    How you can disassemble everything and put it back together is astonishing! An engineer with a degree on the wall could never do it. Well done and thank you for sharing!

    Keep doing the tear down! It's very satisfying watching you take things apart, explain how everything works and ultimately finding out whats the root cause of the issue. I'm all for seeing you tear everything apart, even if there's nothing wrong with it.

    KT... love your stuff! You are brillant beyond your years and without any formal training or mentor... Truely outstanding. I have watched every video and I will continue to do so. When my long awaited ship comes in, I will commission you to build me a 3406.

    KT3406E, I really appreciate all Your videos! I always learn something new every time I watch Your videos!

When it comes to this stuff You are the best of the best (IMHO) Thanks so much for sharing this with us and look forward to Your next video! Cheers DC.

    Stunning to acknowledge the brilliant minds that design machinery like this. Through much trial and error, over many years, the final product is put to use. To think every single piece, part, component had to be designed, tested, by someone, not some computer, is awesome.

    I very much appreciate your videos. The valve housing is probably the culprit and going this far into it, you are almost duty-bound to find the problem - at least the OCD part of me would not be able to let it go..
