DTC P0713 (6-Speed A/T)

DTC P0713  : ATF Temperature Sensor (Open)

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. Problem verification

   - 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 Temp Sensor (V)	More than 4.93	V

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   YES 

   The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

   NO 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections and loose terminals between the ATF temperature sensor and the PCM. 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.

2. Determine possible failure area (TATF line, others)

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Disconnect the following connector.

   ATF temperature sensor 2P connector

   - 3. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

   Terminal A	ATF temperature sensor 2P connector No. 1
   Terminal B	Body ground

   - 4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

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

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   ATF Temp Sensor (V)	Less than 0.07	V

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   YES 

   Go to step 3.

   NO 

   Go to step 4.

3. ATF temperature sensor check

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Remove the jumper wire.

   - 3. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

   Terminal A	ATF temperature sensor 2P connector No. 1
   Terminal B	ATF temperature sensor 2P connector No. 2

   - 4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

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

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   ATF Temp Sensor (V)	Less than 0.07	V

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   YES 

   Replace the ATF temperature sensor .

   NO 

   The ATF temperature sensor is OK. Repair an open in the SG2 wire between the ATF temperature sensor and the PCM.

4. Open wire check (TATF line)

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Remove the jumper wire.

   - 3. Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

   - 4. Disconnect the following connector.

   PCM connector B (51P)

   - 5. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	ATF temperature sensor 2P connector: disconnected
   	PCM connector B (51P): disconnected
   Test point 1	ATF temperature sensor 2P connector No. 1
   Test point 2	PCM connector B (51P) No. 39 - Refer to: PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs (16-20 6-Speed A/T)

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The TATF wire is OK. 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) .

   NO 

   Repair an open in the TATF wire between the ATF temperature sensor and the PCM.
