ATF Temperature Sensor: Inspection

  1. INSPECT ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR ASSEMBLY 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance 

      STANDARD RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      E2 - THO1 90 Ω to 156 kΩ
      E2 - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher
      THO1 - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

      HINT:

      If the resistance is out of the specified range with the ATF temperature shown in the table below, the driveability of the vehicle may decrease.

      Standard Resistance 

      STANDARD RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

      ATF Temperature Specified Condition
      10°C (50°F) 5.8 to 7.1 kΩ
      110°C (230°F) 0.22 to 0.28 kΩ

      If the result is not specified, replace the ATF temperature sensor assembly.
