Introduction

The problem listed below does have a known solution. Use the solution identified below.

Problem

Problems repairing the CX38 transmission have been reported.

Solution

The improved CX38 transmission repair/replace process authorizes any dealer that has a transmission test bench, obtains all the required tooling to perform the repair, and has reviewed the available resources in table 1 below, to rebuild the CX38 as their top repair option. Special tooling and assembly procedures are required for rebuild and transmission testing.

Table 1
Resource Title  Resource Location 
"Disassembly and Assembly"  Service Publication: UENR4227 
"CX38 Bench Test Procedure"  Service Publication: Special Instruction, REHS9381 
"Reuse and Salvage Transmission Case"  Service Publication: Reuse and Salvage Guidelines, M0072352 
"CX38 Disassembly & Assembly"  Channel 1 Videos: CATU0825 
"CX38 Transmission Test Procedures"  Cat Inspection App Forms 
"CX38 Rebuild Checklist"  Cat Inspection App Forms 

Any dealer that is missing the required tooling or has not reviewed the "Disassembly and Assembly" material along with the Channel 1 Video are unauthorized to tear down or rebuild any failed CX38 transmissions. These dealers must remove their failed transmissions and replace those with a Cat Reman 20R-6548 Transmission Arrangement if available. If the Cat Reman transmission is unavailable, complete the repair by using the new 518-9384 Transmission Ar (CX38).
