At Oil Temp Warning Light Display: Inspection

After turning the ignition switch to ON, illuminates for 2 seconds then goes off.

AT OIL TEMP light illuminates when the ATF temperature is abnormally high with the ignition switch ON.

AT OIL TEMP light blinks at 2 Hz when the TCM detects the malfunction of CVT with the ignition switch ON. In this case, inspect using "Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)". Ref. to TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS)>DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) .

AT OIL TEMP light repeats "Blinking at 4 Hz → Turning OFF" when the AT learning is not completed with the ignition switch ON. In this case, perform the "Learning". Ref. to TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS)>LEARNING CONTROL .
