Pinpoint Test A: Automatic Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit Tests

  1. A1: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST 1
    1. Refer to the relevant service information and remove the transmission control module
    2. Measure the resistance between the automatic transmission internal wiring harness connector terminals 8 and 7
      G11588814

      Is the measured resistance infinitely high (open circuit)?

      • Yes  : Check the automatic transmission internal wiring harness for open circuit. Repair or install a new wiring harness as necessary
      • No  : GO to  A2.
  2. A2: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST 2
    1. Measure the resistance between the automatic transmission internal wiring harness connector terminal 8 and the automatic transmission casing
      G11588814

      Is the measured resistance infinitely high (open circuit)?

      • Yes  : GO to  A3.
      • No  : Check the automatic transmission internal wiring harness for short circuit to ground. Repair or install a new wiring harness as necessary
  3. A3: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST 3
    1. Measure the resistance between the automatic transmission internal wiring harness connector terminal 7 and the automatic transmission casing
      G11588814

      Is the measured resistance infinitely high (open circuit)?

      • Yes  : GO to  A4.
      • No  : Check the automatic transmission internal wiring harness for short circuit to ground. Repair or install a new wiring harness as necessary
  4. A4: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST 4
    1. Measure the resistance between the automatic transmission internal wiring harness connector terminal 8 and all other terminals in the connector (except terminal 7)
      G11588814

      Is the measured resistance infinitely high (open circuit)?

      • Yes  : GO to  A5.
      • No  : Check the automatic transmission internal wiring harness for short circuit. Repair or install a new wiring harness as necessary
  5. A5: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST 5
    1. Measure the resistance between the automatic transmission internal wiring harness connector terminal 7 and all other terminals in the connector (except terminal 8)
      G11588814

      Is the measured resistance infinitely high (open circuit)?

      • Yes  : Using the manufacturer approved diagnostic system, clear the DTCs and retest. If the fault persists, install a new transmission control module
      • No  : Check the automatic transmission internal wiring harness for short circuit. Repair or install a new wiring harness as necessary
NOTE:
  • There is no resistance specification for the input shaft speed sensor, but it should not be open circuit (check for continuity only).
  • The Gear Selector Sensor Calibration routine must be performed after installing a new automatic transmission or transmission control module, or after removing and installing the existing transmission control module.
