BD's Thermal Bypass Valve delete is designed as a simple upgrade that eliminates the problematic thermal bypass valve to ensure proper fluid flow throughout the transmission, this upgrade ensures proper fluid flow throughout the transmission to prevent the common overheating issues that lead to premature wear and failure on the 2013+ 68RFE & AS69RC transmissions.
Dodge decided to incorporate a transmission cooler by pass valve into the cooling system of the 68-RFE and Aisin AS69RC that bypasses the transmission cooler during cold operation.
The intent is to force the transmission to warm up faster, the reality is this bypass valve leaks and sticks in the bypass position in almost every case causing the transmission cooler flow to bypass the trans cooler essentially eliminating the trans cooler from the circuit. This causes a severe damage to the transmission over time.
The BD cooler block replaces the faulty design eliminating the bypass valve and ensures 100 percent of the trans cooler flow is forced through the trans cooler. In every case this substantially reduces transmission temperatures.
Features & Benefits:
- Extremely Simple Installation
- Eliminates Problematic Bypass Valve
- Ensures Proper Cooling & Prevents Damage From Overheating
- Available For The 2013+ 68RFE & AS69RC AISIN Transmissions
