1. While pressing A in the figure, turn B counterclockwise to unlock the CVT assembly connector, and disconnect the connector.
2. caution | Insert a thermometer which is made of metal or is put in a metal case [overall length: approximately 150 - 200 mm (5.9 - 7.9 inch)] into the transaxle case hole approximately 80 mm (3.1 inch). |
Remove the oil filler tube assembly (Refer to Transaxle Assembly), and insert a thermometer into the transaxle case hole.
note | If 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 No. 12 of the CVT assembly connector and the ground (terminal No. 18).Standard value: | Fluid temperature °C (°F) | Resistance kΩ | 20 (68) | 6.29 - 6.83 | 50 (122) | 2.10 - 2.25 | 80 (176) | 0.85 - 0.90 |
|
4. Measure the resistance between the sensor-side connector terminal No. 12 of the CVT assembly connector and the transaxle case.Normal condition: No continuity
5. caution | The transmission fluid temperature sensor cannot be removed or replaced as a single unit. When the transmission fluid temperature sensor needs to be replaced, replace the valve body harness. |
When the resistance of the transmission fluid temperature sensor is outside the standard value, replace the valve body harness (Refer to
).
