DIFFERENTIAL OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR INSPECTION 

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.  

2. Disconnect the differential oil temperature sensor connector and remove the differential oil temperature 

sensor.  

3. Wrap the differential oil temperature sensor with plastic wrap and immerse it into a beaker filled with 

water. Gradually raise the water temperature, and measure resistance between differential oil temperature 
sensor terminals A and B. 

If not as specified, inspect the harness for continuity. If there is normal continuity between the 
terminals, replace the differential oil temperature sensor.

Automatic Transaxle Overhaul (AW6A-EL) - CX-7, CX-9 & Mazda 6 

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE 

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE DISASSEMBLY 

Precaution 

The following are precautions that must be followed when performing removal/installation. 

1. Handle electronic parts with care 

Do not pull the wiring harness forcibly when disconnecting the connector. Unlock the lock first and 
pull the connector.  

When connecting the connector, verify to insert it until it is properly locked. (Verify that a click 
sound is heard.)  

Do not shock electronic parts. Replace with new parts if they have been dropped or subjected to 
shock.  

2. Prevent foreign matter from penetrating 

Be sure to remove foreign matter such as dust and sand from the automatic transaxle before 
removing parts.  

Protect removed parts from dust with an object such as a vinyl sheet.  

Do not use cotton work gloves or shop rags as frayed strings might get caught in the unit. Thus 
work with bare hands or use vinyl gloves.  

3. Prevent scratching 

Do not pry with a screwdriver forcibly. Slightly hit the case with a plastic hammer when separating 
component cases at seams.  

Do not pull the valve forcibly.  

Be careful not to get the wire harness caught between parts during installation.  

4. Prevent incorrect installation and lack of or missing parts 

Be careful not to install parts incorrectly or lose parts since there are similar types of O-rings, snap 
rings, bearings and races. Take great care for straightening parts and checking installation direction. 

Be careful not to drop small parts such as check balls or lose them during installation.  

5. Wash parts and apply oil 

Wash each part before installing and dry using compressed air, and then apply the specified ATF 
type JWS3309.  

Soak disks in ATF type JWS3309 before installing. In particular, soak new disks for 2 h or more 
so that the oil seeps into the lining.  

If the thrust bearing or race falls during installation, use a small amount of yellow petrolatum 
grease.  

Apply ATF type JWS3309 to contact and rotating surfaces.
