How can you check or add transmission fluid into Ford Explorer?

I have a 2002 Ford Explorer. The transmission is keep slipping ever since I had new transmission fluid put into my 60,000 mile transmission from a mechanic, ever since then it kept slipping and making strange humming noise when I slow down, any advice on how I can add or check how much fluid is left in there, because there is not a transmission dipstick under the hood, Thanks!|||02 and newer 4 door Explorers have no dipstick. They have a plug on the bottom of the tranny pan that, when removed, and with the tranny fluid at the correct temperature, is expected to just drip fluid when it's at the right level... it gets rather complex, so it's better to have a professional check for you.|||Nothings ever simple anymore, go to this site, it will explain the entire procedure, once you see what is involved, you will probably want to take it somewhere to have it checked/serviced.

Without the proper tools its almost impossible to put the proper amount of fluid back in when servicing.|||Every automatic car has a dipstick for the transmission fluid unless its manual. is it manual? need more details on this.|||it has either a dipstick up top or a check plug in the pan. check it running , hot and in park.|||Take it back to where you had the work done, and demand they fix it or refund you.
