CHECK A/T FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR FUNCTION

 With CONSULT

1. Cool the engine.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

CAUTION:

Never start the engine.

3. Select “FLUID TEMP” in “Data Monitor” in “TRANSMISSION”.

4. Select “COOLANT TEMP/S” in “Data Monitor” in “ENGINE”.

5. Check temperature difference between A/T fluid and engine coolant.

 With GST

1. Complete engine diagnoses P0111, P0116, and P0196.

2. After starting the engine start, run the engine at idle for 5 minutes.

3. Check the DTC.
Is the temperature calculated by subtracting engine coolant temperature from A/T fluid temperature more than

38

°C (100.4°F) or is it less than −27°C (−16.6°F)? (With CONSULT)/Is “P0711” detected? (With GST)

YES

>> Go to 

TM-151, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO-1 [With CONSULT: “FLUID TEMP” is 15

°C (59°F) or more]>>INSPECTION END

NO-2 [With CONSULT: “FLUID TEMP” is 14

°C (57.2°F) or less]>>GO TO 3.

NO-3 (With GST)>>GO TO 3.

3.

CHECK DTC DETECTION

 With CONSULT

1. Select “SLCT LVR POSI”, “VHCL/S SE-AT”, “ACCELE POSI”, “FLUID TEMP” in “Data Monitor” in

“TRANSMISSION”.

2. Record A/T fluid temperature.

3. Start the engine and wait for at least 3 minutes.

4. Drive the vehicle for the total minuets specified in the Driving time column below with the following condi-

tions satisfied.

5. Perform “Self Diagnostic Results” in “TRANSMISSION”.

 With GST

1. Cool the engine.

2. Start the engine and wait for at least 3 minutes.

3. Drive the vehicle and maintain the following conditions for 21 minutes or more.

4. Check the DTC.
Is “P0711” detected?

YES

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009267907

1.

CHECK A/T FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect the A/T unit connector.

3. Check the A/T fluid temperature sensor. Refer to 

TM-151, "Component Inspection (A/T Fluid Temperature

Sensor)"

.

Is the check result normal?

YES

>> Check intermittent incident. Refer to 

GI-45, "Intermittent Incident"

.

NO

>> Repair or replace the malfunctioning parts.

Component Inspection (A/T Fluid Temperature Sensor)

INFOID:0000000009267908

1.

CHECK A/T FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR

Measure the resistance between the A/T unit connector terminals.

Is the check result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> There is a malfunction of the A/T fluid temperature sensor. Replace the transaxle assembly. Refer

to 

TM-250, "Removal and Installation"
