Default Installed the Fuddle today....

Just like the title says, trans is back in the car and I have a leak at the big 20 pin connector. When pushing the connector on, the part it plugs into on the trans is pushing down into the trans and its leaking.....Anyone know how this is supposed to be attached to the case to keep it from pushing in? Hoping for a quick answer, I really dont want to drop the pan so I am hoping it can be done from the top. Thanks, Ron

I am about ready to just hammer a hole in the side of the transmission, **** in it, then throw the whole thing off a bridge......Or I'll probably just have a few beers and drop the pan...

naaah, just drop the pan and clip on the base of the connector to place.. once tight it wont move when you connect it from the top...

but just to be sure, clip the connector BEFORE you put the pan again...
