This transmission has a fluid screen not a filter which is non serviceable, so it is known as a dump and fill. Here is a guide to help you step by step with instructions in the images below for your car:

Ford Part Number

Note: Using any transmission fluid other than those that meet the recommended specification may cause internal transmission damage. Check out the images (below). Let us know what you find.
