STEP | CHECK | YES | NO |
1.CHECK HARNESS.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the TCM connector.
3) Measure the resistance of harness between TCM connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(B54) No. 1 — Chassis ground:
(B54) No. 6 — Chassis ground:
Is the resistance 1 M? or more?

2.CHECK HARNESS.
1) Disconnect the transmission connector.
2) Measure the resistance between transmission connector and transmission body.
Connector & terminal
(T4) No. 5 — Transmission body:
(T4) No. 9 — Transmission body:
Is the resistance 1 M? or more?
Repair the short circuit of body harness.

3.CHECK HARNESS INSIDE TRANSMISSION.
CAUTION:
Start work after ATF cools down.
1) Remove the transmission valve cover.
2) Check for the harness pinch, damage.
Is there any fault in the harness?
Replace the transmission harness.

4.CHECK ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
Measure the resistance between transmission connector terminals.
Connector & terminal
(T11) No. 1 — No. 6:
NOTE:
Perform the measurements using multiple oil temperatures.
Is resistance as follows?
Fluid temperature 0°C > Approx. 6.0 k?
Fluid temperature 20°C > Approx. 2.5 k?
Fluid temperature 80°C > Approx. 330 ?

1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
• Detect the ground short circuit of transmission oil temperature sensor.
• Judge as NG if the voltage detected by the transmission oil temperature sensor is lower than the predetermined value.
2. EXECUTION CONDITION
Secondary Parameters | Execution condition |
12 V battery system voltage | ≥ 9 V |
3. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
If the duration of time while the following conditions are met is longer than the time indicated, judge as NG.
Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value |
Measured Transmission fluid temperature sensor input voltage | < 0.117 V |
(Transmission fluid temperature) | (> 146 degC) |
Time Needed for Diagnosis: 1 second
Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates as soon as a malfunction occurs.
