What happens here

Begin by disconnecting and removing the wiring harness and the range selector from the transmission. The presenter notes that on older models, the connectors may be glued in, requiring careful heating to avoid damage during removal. Once the electrical components are disconnected, use a cart to lift and position the transmission for easier access to the pan, ensuring it's at a comfortable working height.

Goal: Prepare the transmission for internal work by removing external electrical parts and positioning it ergonomically.
