FLUID TEMP SENSOR A (Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor A Circuit Range/ Performance)

When any of 1 or 2 is satisfied:

Under the following diagnosis conditions, CVT fluid temperature does not rise to 10В°C (50В°F) after driving for a certain period of time with the TCM-received fluid temperature sensor value between − 40В°C (−40В°F) and 9В°C (48.2В°F).

Diagnosis condition

CVT fluid temperature: Less than 10В°C

When the condition of the final judgment is satisfied after satisfying that of the provisional judgment:

Provisional judgment: All of the following conditions are satisfied within 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON.

U0073, U0100, P0712 and P0713 are not detected.
CAN communication is normal.
TCM power supply voltage: More than 11 V
The difference between CVT fluid temperature and engine coolant temperature is 37В°C (98.6В°F) or more, or −27В°C (− 16В°F) or less.

Final judgment: When all of the following conditions are satisfied and this state is maintained for 300 seconds:

ECM is normal.
Provisional judgment is satisfied.
