Component Inspection
- CHECK "TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR"
- Ignition "OFF".
- Disconnect the "TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR" connector.
- Measure the resistance between terminals "1" and "2" of the "TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR".
Specification: Refer to ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE .

YES
- Go to 2 as below.
NO
- Replace "TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR" as necessary and refer to VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR .
- CHECK TCM
- Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF".
- Connect "TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR" connector.
- Install scan tool and select a SIMU-SCAN.
- Simulate voltage (0 -->5V) to "TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR" signal circuit.
- Is FLUID TEMP. SENSOR signal value changed according to simulation voltage?
YES
- Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then refer to VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR .
NO
- Substitute with a known-good PCM/TCM and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace PCM/TCM as necessary and then refer to VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR .
