Well I think if you look at the battery on the left side of the car and then down to the right of it you will see a yellow loop down on the transmission. That is it. Its hard to reach and hard to get back in but it is very important that it gets back and is seated.

To check ATF:

Park on level surface,
Put your foot on brake and slowly go through every position on transmission: from P to 1.
Shut the car down
Open the hood, pull the dipstick out and wipe it off.

Check the level.
