So i did something stupid and need help

[Neffarious]

I was trying to find the drain for the coolant for the hybrid electronics and instead disconnected the hose for the transmission cooler. I reconnected it but not before i drained quite a bit out. I want to re-fill it since i can measure how much i took out pretty easily, BUT i cannot find where the fill plug is. There used to be a PDF called Oel Check Fusion Hybrid gearbox but its not hosted any more. I don;t want to have it towed to the dealer and look like a complete dummy, I'd much rather do that in front of internet strangers. I have another car (wife is out of town) but i would rather not have to tell her i was a dummy either. So can someone show me a picture or video of there the cap is so i can fill it back up and pretend it never happened? Pretty please?

This is the procedure from the factory service manual. It shows the fill plug.

 

I don't have the big tank or attachment to fill it, but use a clear hose that fits inside the fill port and a funnel. Takes a while, because the fluid goes in slowly.

 

The fill plug has a small washer on it, don't drop it. And don't overtighten it.

 

Good Luck.

Why are you draining the coolant?

Because I am at 100k and it's a recommended service. Told wife. Off to dealer tomorrow
