The tag that identifies your automatic transmission on a 98 contour is located on the side cover of the transmission. This is the transmission valve body cover and it is on the left side of the trans (side that is closest to the front of the car). It will be a sticker that will have a bar code and a series of letters and numbers. I think there is also another similar tag located elsewhere on the unit but I dont recall where. It is important to find trans with same code if plan is to swap out with another unit. Ford idiodically tossed a few different cd4e transmissions in same year cars that had minor differences in electronics and axle ratios. This means your car's computer will get conflicting info sent to it and will react by sending improper signals back to your trans causing a list of probs. Good luck to you. Steve
