First question. Why are you adding fluid?

David, I pour it in the dip stick tube.
Good luck.

I was checking fluid levels and it appears low.

Check the trans fluid from the shift pad, not the dipstick. Wit the coach warmed up to operating temp and in neutral, press the up and down arrows at the same time. That will start the process it takes about a minute for it to complete its check. ///it will then say ok or -1 etc to indicate the level. The dipsticks are usually not accurate.

Make sure your engine is running when you check it. That will give you an accurate reading. Never when off. Engine oil is exactly the opposite. Good luck and safe travels.

I use the Allison transmission control pad in cab to check level electronically. Sometimes I check using the dipstick, but the control pad is supposed to be more accurate. If I were to need any, I would add it through the dip stick tube using a long thin funnel.

Be sure the tranny is well warmed up, like at a rest area on a drive day, right after you park.
Level the coach in neutral.
Press both up/down gear shift buttons at the same time The readout will slowly count down to "0" You will get a reading of "ol ok" or number of quarts low.

Press Up and Down arrow buttons simultaneously and it will do a countdown and then display OK, or LO 1, or something like that. Be sure to have engine at idle, tranny fluid warm and level ground.

Tranny has to be up to operating temp, believe it's 160. IF the temp is under it will code "70". Once temp is good it will do a count down and once it's done counting down it will read "ol" then "ok" if the level is good. If it's low or high it will read after "ol", "lo" if its low or "hi" if it's high then will give a number 1-5 meaning it's low or high that number in quarts.
When setting in the shop, I put it at High 1. This was recommended by our local Allison shop, reason is so if the customer checks it will be either "ok" or high 1, but not low. What I've found is that when I set it high 1 in the shop on flat level ground and then after the test drive and checking in the parking lot it will normally read "ok"
