Location 

The transmission oil temperature sensor (Y3/8s2) is integrated into the control unit.

Task 

The transmission oil temperature sensor detects the transmission oil temperature. This is processed as an input factor by the control unit.

Design 

The transmission oil temperature sensor has a measuring resistor with a negative temperature coefficient (NTC).

IMPORTANT NTC stands for " egative emperature oefficient", which means that the electrical resistance decreases as temperature rises (NTC thermistor).
