CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor
 
 
FUNCTIONS WITHIN THE SYSTEM
The CVT fluid temperature sensor transfers detected fluid temperature to TCM as signal voltage.
 
 
INDIVIDUAL FUNCTION WITHIN SYSTEM
The CVT fluid temperature sensor detects CVT fluid temperature in oil pan.
 
 
INDIVIDUAL OPERATION
The fluid temperature sensor uses a thermistor, and changes the voltage signal by converting changes in the CVT fluid temperature to a resistance value.
The voltage signal value change must be in proportion to the resistance value change.
TCM evaluates the CVT fluid temperature from the voltage signal value.
 
 
COMPONENT PARTS LOCATION
The CVT fluid temperature sensor is installed to control valve.
