I have done many fluid changes in automatic units, never would I touch the shift lever as the fluid is draining as the engine runs.
I think this is how you got your code 62
Doing something that makes absolutely no sense.
Of course it will detect slippage from no pressure and moving the lever.
I have done the same type of fluid swap but always at the radiator instead
I never wait till it stops spitting fluid.
I use a 2.5 gallon container to collect old fluid and simply add new atf while
the old stuff is pumping out.
When I run out of the new fluid I am pouring in I simply turn off the engine
tighten up the cooler lines and my job is finished after a few more fluid level
checks.
I followed the flushing procedure in the IDI tech articles to the letter. Here is the link to the tech article http://www.oilburners.net/forums/showthread.php?29296-Flushing-a-E4OD-or-4R100
This procedure was written up by a Ford Trans Engineer. It is my thought that the fact that this code appeared while performing the flush is merely coincidence, and would have occurred at some point anyway, and was not caused by the flush procedure. I think I have an electrical issue, and with guidance from some helpful members on here, I hope to be able to eventually track it down.
