P0711 TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR A

Is the temperature calculated by subtracting engine coolant temperature from CVT fluid temperature more

than 37

°C (98.6°F) or is it less than −27°C (−16.6°F)? (With CONSULT)/Is “P0711” detected? (With GST)

YES

>> Go to 

TM-354, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO-1 [With CONSULT: “FLUID TEMP” is 10

°C (50°F) or more]>>INSPECTION END

NO-2 [With CONSULT: “FLUID TEMP” is 9

°C (48.2°F) or less]>>GO TO 3.

NO-3 (With GST)>>GO TO 3.

3.

CHECK DTC DETECTION

 With CONSULT

1. Select “SLCT LVR POSI”, “VSP SENSOR”, “ACCELE POSI SEN 1”, “FLUID TEMP” in “Data Monitor” in

“TRANSMISSION”.

2. Record CVT 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?

TM-354, "Component Inspection (CVT Fluid Temperature

Sensor)"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> Check intermittent incident. Refer to 

GI-45, "Intermittent Incident"

.

NO

>> Repair or replace malfunctioning parts.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PREPARATION BEFORE WORK

If another "DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE" occurs just before, turn ignition switch OFF and wait for at

least 10 seconds, then perform the next test.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1. Start the engine and wait for 10 seconds or more.

2. Check the first trip DTC.
