TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CHECK
1. While pressing A in the figure, turn B counterclockwise to unlock the CVT assembly connector, and disconnect the connector.
2.
cautionInsert a thermometer which is made of metal or is put in a metal case [overall length: approximately 150 - 200 mm (6.0 - 7.8 inches)] into the transaxle case hole approximately 80 mm (3.1 inches).
Remove the oil filler tube assembly (Refer to ), and insert a thermometer into the transaxle case hole.
noteIf a radiation thermometer (noncontact thermometer) is available, use it to measure the surface temperature of the oil pan.
3. Measure the resistance between the sensor-side connector terminal number 12 of the CVT assembly connector and ground (terminal number18).
Standard value:
 
Fluid temperature °C (°F)Resistance kΩ
At 20 (68)Approximately 6.5
At 50 (122)Approximately 2.2
At 80 (176)Approximately 0.9
4.
cautionThe transmission fluid temperature sensor cannot be removed or replaced as a single unit.
When the resistance of the transmission fluid temperature sensor is outside the standard value, replace the valve body assembly (Refer to ).
