How to change auto-tranny fluid?-89 Maxima

Fluid looks pretty dirty (dark). Is there a drain plug on the transmission to drain the fluid or does a "pan" have to be pulled?

1989 Maxima 280K miles and still going strong.

I just changed the tranny fluid last week. There is a drain plug on the bottom side of the transmission case facing forward. You will need a 1/2" drive ratchet (no socket needed, just the 1/2" drive ratchet) to remove the drain plug.

I drained about 4.7-4.8 quarts of ATF as I let it drain for several hours.
