Just thought I would post some of the operating parameters of my series 60 on a 78 degree day in hilly conditions. All of these are taken from my VMS as many of the gauges are unreliable.
Engine Temp--192 to 195 degrees
Oil Temp--187 degrees
Trans Temp--189 to 192 degrees
Oil Pressure--48 to 50 lbs
Battery voltage--13.9 to 14.1 volts
The "mode" button changes the shift pattern of the transmission. I have experimented with it over a ten year period and have seen no benefit and no performance difference.
This pdf will explain using your keypad to check the Allison transmission fluid procedure. Go to page 19 for most of our keypads.
