Transmission Drain Plug

Transmission Drain Plug
Would someone have a diagram or picture of the drain plug on the transmission on a 2002 ETC? I would like to drain and fill my transmission but can't determine where the plug is. Thanks.

RE: Transmission Drain Plug
I checked another Cadillac forum and came up with this:
The side cover drain plug is only accessible once the pan is dropped. I spent a H*ll of a lot of time looking for it before I dropped the pan, too.
It's a 1/4 NPT hex socket pipe plug located about midway along the side of the trans.[/align][/align]Here is another one:[/align][/align]
AKP, the filter is a metal screen, just needs cleaning. There is a bolt hidden behind the screen that drains the upper portion of the trans.There are links with pictures but I think it was a 10mm head. Someone may have a better description. The pan gasket should be reuseable if it's original (it could be getting hard).
While you have the pan off check the solenoids for cracking. They should not wiggle.[/align][/align][/align]Can anyone further amplify either of these? Thanks.[/align]
