You almost never check the A/T fluid with the transmission in gear. Check your owner's manual or look on the dipstick. If you have no owner's manual or it is not listed on the dip stick, call your local Ford dealer. Overfilling the transmission is a sure way to cause damage. You must check the fluid the correct way.
