DTC P0711 (6-Speed A/T)

DTC P0711  : ATF Temperature Sensor (Range/Performance)

NOTE: 

• Before you troubleshoot, review the General Troubleshooting Information - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the A/T System .
• This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

DTC (A/T)

1. Current ATF temperature check

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   - 2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   ATF Temperature	Less than - 4	°F
   	Less than - 20	°C

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   YES 

   Go to step 2.

   NO 

   Go to step 3.

2. ATF temperature sensor check (after warm up)

   - 1. Start the engine, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).

   - 2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   ATF Temperature	Less than - 4	°F
   	Less than - 20	°C

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   -4 °F (- 20 °C) or below

   Replace the ATF temperature sensor .

   Abnormal temperature rise

   If there is an abnormal temperature rise in temperature of the ATF temperature sensor, check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting or substitute a known-good PCM - Refer to: PCM Removal and Installation (6-Speed A/T, 16-18 9-Speed A/T), .

   -4 °F (- 20 °C) or higher

   The ATF temperature sensor is OK. Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.

3. Problem verification

   - 1. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   ATF Temperature	More than 230	°F
   	More than 110	°C

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   YES 

   The failure is duplicated. Go to step 4.

   NO 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.

4. ATF temperature sensor check (after cool down)

   - 1. Let the engine cool until the Engine Coolant Temperature reads 122 °F (50 °C) or below with the HDS.

   Signal	Current conditions
   	Values	Unit
   Engine Coolant Temperature

   - 2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   ATF Temperature	More than 230	°F
   	More than 110	°C

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   230 °F (110 °C) or higher

   Replace the ATF temperature sensor .

   Abnormal temperature decrease

   If there is an abnormal temperature decrease in temperature of the ATF temperature sensor, check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting or substitute a known-good PCM - Refer to: PCM Removal and Installation (6-Speed A/T, 16-18 9-Speed A/T) .

   230 °F (110 °C) or below

   The ATF temperature sensor is OK. Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.
