Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor Check

  1. Remove the transmission fluid temperature sensor.
  2. Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the transmission fluid temperature sensor connector.
    TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE AND RESISTANCE (STANDARD VALUE)

    TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE
    0°C (32°F) 16.7 - 20.5 kΩ
    20°C (68°F) 7.3 - 8.9 kΩ
    40°C (104°F) 3.4 - 4.2 kΩ
    60°C (140°F) 1.9 - 2.2 kΩ
    80°C (176°F) 1.0 - 1.2 kΩ
    100°C (212°F) 0.57 - 0.69 kΩ

  3. If the transmission fluid temperature sensor resistance is outside the specified range and the "A/T TEMP" warning light is illuminating, replace the transmission fluid temperature sensor.
    NOTE: The "A/T TEMP" warning light on the combination meter illuminates when the temperature reaches approximately 125°C (257 °F) or greater, and then stops illuminating when the temperature drops below approximately 115°C (239 °F).
