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 (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.
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 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.
cautionThe 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 ).
