FORD AOD-E
The AOD-E transmission is a four speed, rear wheel drive, automatic overdrive transmission which is
completely electronic controlled and includes a torque converter clutch. In its general appearance it resembles
the hydraulically controlled AOD transmission. The easiest identification between the two will be the two
shafts protruding from the front on the AOD-E unit as opposed to the three shafts on the AOD.

diagnosing methods necessary. You will notice that several pieces of diagnosing equipment that will be
