E450 tranny temps

i understand that very few, if any, class c's on the ford e450 frame come with a tranny temp guage. seems odd to me especially when most also have the towing capability. so, that being said, how does one check tranny temps when towing? is there a relation to water temps? or am i concerned for nothing?

  • You don't indicate which engine you have, and that makes a difference as to what you may need to monitor. In terms of actually monitoring, you can either install individual gauges or a monitor such as as the Edge Insight or Scangauge, either of which plugs into your OBD port and provides real time data from your computer.
